I was at Snow Valley Basketball School a couple of weeks ago, and while there, I got the chance to sit down with Karen Self (of "The Karen Self A Pen And A Napkin Moment"), Cam Schuknecht, the new Midland University Women's Basketball Coach and Joel Lincoln, the director of "Game Shots 3 on 3" out of Charlotte, North Carolina to discuss a variety of topics, including Snow Valley and why it works! We also discuss the importance of 3 on 3, improving as a coach and much more!


Imagine a whiteboard session after a big game, the kind where strategy gets scribbled on whatever's handy. That's the spirit of A Pen And A Napkin. This weekly conversation lives at the crossroads of sport and creative thinking, diving deep into the art of coaching basketball. Each episode feels like pulling up a chair in a gym office, listening to the nuanced discussions about player development, offensive sets, defensive adjustments, and the philosophy behind building a team. It’s less about Xs and Os in a vacuum and more about the why-the human elements and the creative problem-solving that define the craft. You’ll hear authentic breakdowns of game situations, reflections on leadership, and practical ideas that often start with a simple sketch. Think of it as a portable mentors’ roundtable, a clinic distilled into conversation, offering perspectives that resonate whether you’re on the sidelines or just appreciate the deeper layers of the game. Tune in for a podcast that captures the ongoing, ever-evolving dialogue at the heart of coaching.
