@rona for anyone to tell you to “take all the punches” has serious problems. It should. not. have. happened. in the first place. Players come here to play a game. Not to get harassed, especially for their gender.

First off, cheers to the holidays and a huge shoutout to anyone leading a team in HL!

From my two seasons of being a leader for Team Yeye, it has been extremely fun and rewarding. It isn’t always easy but I am very fortunate to have a very supportive team. I am writing this to share some of my insights of being a leader and hopefully this will be of use for new coming teams and leaders.

Team Chemistry

• One of the biggest thing I learned is that team chemistry is extremely important. Having players that enjoy and even look forward to playing together is what matters. It makes winning a bonus and makes losing a valuable lesson for the team’s growth
• When recruiting new players, it is more important to see if the player enjoys playing with your team and if your team enjoys playing with the player (it’s like a puzzle piece)
• Positive and good team chemistry makes coordination and comms effortless

Team Attitude

• As a team leader, you establish the team’s attitude towards the game. Set an environment where players want to improve their gameplay individually by regularly keeping in touch with your players (offer resources to help them grow/improve)
• It is crucial to encourage your players to participate in strategizing. Create an environment where your players can input their voices and communicate effectively together (listen and learn different perspectives)
• Whether you lose or win a scrim /match, it is always nice to discuss together what could have been done better and what the team did well in. There is always room for improvement and this is how your team adopt a winner mentality (notice the weakness and strengths of the team in different scenarios)
• Remember to be patient with each other as the same mistakes can be made multiple times (everyone learns at different speed, as long as they are trying thats what counts)

Team Goals

• Something I do for my team is that I would note 2-3 things I want our team to focus/work on and then evaluate how we did as a team
• Set short-term goals and long-term goals together as a team and encourage players to set their own mini-goals for their gameplay

A little bit about us, we are a friend team that started comp since S6:

Team Yeye RGL HL Season 6 IM Champion #1 (score: 10-0)
Team Yeye RGL HL Season 7 MAIN Champion #1 (score: 9-1)

S8 will be our third season together and we are always open to learning and improving

Some of our players are retiring to our sub list and we would love to welcome new players onto our team.

S6 Team Yeye IM Champion 1st
S7 Team Yeye Main (7-3)
S8 Team Yeye Challenger 4th

For S8, we skipped advance and went into challenger and we made it to 4th. Last season was a huge learning curve for the entire team and we aim to get even better for S9. For the upcoming season, we are looking for sniper, demo, pyro, and engie.

We are a friends team and all our players have only played for three seasons. We are a really dedicated team in terms of improving, so feel free to tryout
