# Sprint Planning: [Sprint #]
## Capacity Analysis
[Available capacity and historical velocity]
## Recommended Goal
[Sprint goal recommendation]
## Suggested Commitment
[What to include in the sprint]
## Risks and Mitigations
[What could go wrong]
## Ceremonies Schedule
[When reviews, retros, planning happen]
Problem: Team commits to more than possible Fix: Use historical velocity, buffer for unknowns
Problem: Work starts without shared understanding Fix: Definition of Ready, thorough grooming
Problem: Scope changes during sprint Fix: Sprint protection, change process
Problem: Same items roll over sprint after sprint Fix: Break down work smaller, investigate blockers
