I absolutely love hearing your point of view! I started a youth volleyball program in our area and the information, opinions, and tools you have given me more confidence in myself as a first time coach but long time player. Our area never had a youth program until now. I played in junior high, high school, college, and club ball and I still didn’t feel prepared to be on the other side of the game coaching. Thank you!

Second opinion

I’m enjoying this podcast greatly. Helping me ease myself into the game. Thanks for all you do!

I get asked this question ALL. THE. TIME. And I'm not surprised! Being on a volleyball team means facing challenges day after day with individuals you may or may not get along with. This is tough for most adults I know, let alone teen and preteen athletes. In this episode, I'll walk you three types of "interventions" you can use when your volleyball team doesn't get along. This moves from easiest to implement to the more challenging ways to deal with conflict.

32. I Answer: "My Volleyball Team Doesn't Get Along... Please Help!"

Before your first tournament of the season, you’ll need to identify leaders on your team. This can be a challenge because in the beginning of the season, EVERYONE is on their best behavior! Everyone hustles to shag, they’re all clapping for each other, and when you ask them to come in… they run. But in order to find one or two players who will own the role of leader, there are a few things we as coaches can keep an eye on at practice. Noticing these characteristics early on will help you in more ways than you can count, as you’ll be able to focus attention towards guiding these players, who in turn will help steer the rest of the team for you.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/getthepancake/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/getthepancake/support

3. How To Identify Natural Leaders on Your Volleyball Team

When you are training a group of players to be elite athletes it can seem like spending time playing games at practice is a waste of time. What we sometimes forget as coaches is that fun is a major component of the learning process. Thinking back on my time as a player I first remember running around laughing with my teammates and playing fun games. Yes, I remember playing hard, training, and running through drills, but the most vivid memories are from when I was playing "deadfish," "the downball game," and more.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/getthepancake/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/getthepancake/support

4. The Power of Games: 5 Benefits of Playing Games At Volleyball Practice

Are you a new volleyball coach who is trying to understand the positions on a volleyball team? Are you trying to place players in positions but don't know where to start when looking at your roster? Let me help! Keep in mind... this information is highly generalized and more for younger and newer teams. I hope this provides you with guidance but if you disagree with anything I highly encourage you to do what you think is best for your team! There have been plenty of times I myself have gone against the general advice provided in this episode, simply because it didn't work with the roster I had that season.

If you have a player (or two) on your team who seems to freeze up or look to you for support when you are not expecting it, they might be feeling anxious in the moment. I give you 5 steps to follow in order to help them feel more confident in themselves and their actions, leading to athletes who don't hesitate on the court.  *Disclaimer: I’m going to discuss coaching players who are ANXIOUS, not players who have been diagnosed with anxiety.
