Episode 125: Coach Chaun Klem

Down The Alley

As the chill of winter sets in, we're heating things up with Coach Clem, the tactical mastermind behind BSM Red Knights' D-line and a crowd favorite at the Down the Alley Summit. Get ready to unwrap this festive episode where we share hearty tales of sneaking Christmas gifts past inquisitive toddlers and the unexpected life lessons gleaned from family Uno showdowns. Coach Clem isn't just about the X's and O's; he’s here to remind us all of the joy and nostalgia that come from disconnecting and diving into a good old-fashioned board game during the holiday season.
Lacrosse enthusiasts, you're in for a treat as we reacquaint you with Coach Clem's journey and the incredible talent he's cultivated on the field. Picture the thrill of navigating the logistical mazes of coaching, as we did at Champlain Park, and the bonds forged through friendly rivalries with coaches like Rob Horn. We'll also dissect the artistry of lacrosse defense, shedding light on the unsung heroes off-ball and those indispensable goalkeepers. The episode is a playbook of insights on balancing innovative defensive schemes with the bedrock of fundamentals, all while navigating the evolving landscape of coaching networking and sharing strategies at summits like the IMLCA.
Don't miss our candid chat about the evolving dynamics of sportsmanship, including the hotly debated topic of sharing film in the lacrosse community. It's not just about having the film—it's about dissecting it to craft winning strategies. Join us as we reminisce about the growth and camaraderie that flourish within the lacrosse coaching network. And for those times when I hang up my coach's whistle, I'll share my transition to being the best spectator and dad on the sidelines, reveling in the pure delight of sports documentaries and books, and even dishing out a family movie pick and top-notch food spots for fellow lacrosse road warriors.
