Tom Garlepp - Building Better Basketball

Today on Building Better Basketball we’re joined by Tom Garlepp - a coach who has built a strong reputation across Australian basketball through player development, high-performance coaching, and his work within national team pathways. Tom has worked with athletes across multiple levels of the game and has recently come out of camp with the Australia Sapphires as their head coach. This gives him a unique insight into what selection, development, and high-performance environments really look like in Australian basketball right now. Literally, it finished yesterday! In this episode we dive into what coaches often miss when it comes to player development, what actually matters at national team level, the role mentoring has played throughout his coaching journey, and what life is like in a household where both he and his wife are coaches.
