How to Answer
You should explain the different ways you create team unity and how you build rapport with your players. Do you do team bonding games or have players come to practice 10 minutes early? What ever method you do to build trust be ready to talk about it.

Answer Example
"I like to ask my players individually: what is something you wish past coaches knew that would help the coach you better. Players don't always get asked about how they need to be coached and I think this is a good question to help build trust that I am here for them."
