Sprint Planning

Category: Project Management

Agile sprint planning capture: sprint goal, selected backlog items, capacity, dependencies, definition of done, parking lot, next steps.

When to use this template

Use it for the start-of-sprint planning ceremony in Scrum, or any agile-style meeting that mirrors it (Scrumban, Shape Up cut, etc.). For the end-of-sprint reflection, use Retrospective. For a rolling status between plannings, use Status Update.

Fields captured

Sprint name / number — the working title (e.g. "Sprint 14" or "Q3 — Sprint 2").
Sprint goal — the one-sentence objective for the sprint.
Sprint dates — start / end and any mid-sprint milestones.
Team capacity — total points, hours, or headcount available this sprint.
Selected items — the backlog items pulled in: title or id, estimate, assignee, and notes per item.
Dependencies & risks — anything the sprint depends on or could trip it up.
Definition of Done notes — any clarifications or additions to the team's DoD this sprint.
Parking lot — items intentionally deferred to a later sprint.
Next steps — concrete tasks with optional owner and due date.
Key takeaways — the AI's prioritized summary points.

The standard summary, attendees, and per-section summaries also apply.
