Punishment for what offense? Onfield goofing off type stuff or off field personal issues? I always liked running for infield type stuff - sometimes running the entire team so as to have the entire team responsible for policing teammates actions. Can also work for things like academic laziness - folks forgot to turn in assignments (as opposed to a poor test score) and the team runs. Probably also depends on the makeup of the team - team running will only work when there is some level of cohesion among the players - if zero cohesion that might makes things worse..
