Shot Selection for High Volleyball IQ
When thinking about hitting shots on the outside we want to be able to play the odds to help put our team in the best situation. That’s not always going for the kill but rather putting the ball in play or to a spot to allow our team to play defense in a higher percentage scenario. Often times the ball from the setter’s hands dictates that last second choice you make.

The Volleyball Passing Drill WE LOVE!
มุมมอง 3.6K28 วันที่ผ่านมา
For a long time coaches would teach the importance of using our legs to get the ball to target, but as the speed of the game has increased, coaches at the most elite levels are focusing more on platform angles. This drill helps you to master creating angles, forcing you to keep your arms apart until contacting the ball.

All Players MUST Listen, Observe, Ask
มุมมอง 966หลายเดือนก่อน
Uncertainty can be scary and uncomfortable. As athletes, we tend to want to "fix" uncertainty quickly by asking questions before we take the time to listen and observe. Unfortunately, when we do this we miss valuable pieces of information. Take a moment to sit with uncertainty and use Listen, Observe, Ask in that order to get the most out of every situation.
Late on Blocking? Do THIS!
มุมมอง 3.1Kหลายเดือนก่อน
The original thinking around how to handle being late was to go straight over wherever you were, but with smarter and more physical attackers now, it doesn’t make sense to go straight over and leave 3 to 4 feet of space for them to swing by. We cover when you should soft block and when you should press straight over.

How the BIC (Backrow-Quick) helps the offense
มุมมอง 3K2 หลายเดือนก่อน
The Bic is a great way to open up your offense. Unlike the pipe, which tends to be a little bit higher, the Bic is a back row-quick. If you have the ability to run a fast option, using this play will keep the opponent’s block on their toes.

    How do you feel about the thumb down roll shot to 3 just over the inside hand of the middle blocker? I have found it tends to frustrate the opposing block and sucks the opposing OH into the court more - which opens up the line shot even more on an up tempo follow up attack.

  • @muddycreekathletics7401
    @muddycreekathletics7401 13 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I also like to teach the cross court push to the 4 as close to the net as possible. Catching an opposing OH too far inside the court makes for an easy quick point or, at the very least, forces them to play a step or two towards their respective sideline and opens up the donut a little bit for the inside tip. Just found your videos and they are great!

    Thank you for the tips, what should someone do if the set is off and they end too early? Also wanted to say that Jesus Christ loves everyone and died for all of our sins. Jesus also rose again from the dead three days later, proving everything He said to be true (before He died He said He would rise again from the dead). Everyone has sin and the wages of sin is death. Sin leads to death and death leads to hell (Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23) But Jesus died for our sins and paid our debt to sin, so anyone who chooses to believe in Him will be saved from hell and could go to heaven. If you want to make Him your Lord and Savior you could say this prayer: Lord Jesus, I confess You as my Lord and Savior. Please forgive me for all of my sins, I repent and I turn to You. Please help me to live for You, and I love you. In Jesus name, Amen! If you prayed that, Glory be to God! Please get a Bible, read it every day, pray everyday and please go to church. Jesus loves you!

    This Tutorial would've been way more useful if the attacker and defender had similar (jump) heights. In the examples shown the defender always has an incredible, almost unbearable advantage by not only having always superior angle and reach on the ball, but also the luxury of being able to hang in the air much longer than the opponent.

    I've tried to apply this, however I've noticed that I very often get tooled by balls that are hit on the outside of my inside arm. (I am a right side pin blocker, so this means that the ball is hit on the right side of my left arm under my wrist and than flys out to the right side outside of our court.) I am not really sure what the issue is here? This seems like a very big and easy target for the attackers to score easily... any tips?

    Again. As a 30yr veteran, you are the most cerebral volleyball site. Bravo. As an old school floor digging teacher, I do believe there are better ways, I like a lot of this video. However, when it comes male vs female athletes, I do not like the front sprawl for females. The male center of gravity(COG) is in the torso, however the females COG is the pelvis. Then of course, the obvious anatomical difference with females in the front make the forward sprawl very unfriendly to females, but does make sense for males. I believe in protecting the head primarily in any floor defense move, then protecting the shoulder for females. The chin is too exposed for my taste on sprawl, and we need to be careful on the head rolling away in this demonstration. I do like knee drives and collapse moves for females as it drives the COG under the ball and protects the head. That's my two cents. Would love to join your staff for some enlightening dialogue on how to enhance the teaching of volleyball. You guys are a breath of intelligence in a game that has become increasingly close minded.

    This might be unrelated but I don't know who to ask to be honest. I am coaching my team but I never had a direct experience before with quicks directly, I've noticed that better teams tends to shout Numbers like 3,2,1 or even a, b or c's I don't understand how that's suppose to work. Say for example: I am a setter and I will go set, before the match started, I communicated the type of play I want to happen but at the same time it could be a combo play. My question lays with how do they go about deciding it's a c quick, b or something or sometimes they use numbers. Wouldn't it be more simple to say it in a different word? Because from what I understand middle spikers tends to adjust accordingly to the type of first touch that happens, so if it's good to bad their distance and the way they open up to their setter changes, but I've also noticed that they would shout words like that and it confuses me a lot. In youtube I don't know exactly where tp find such information

    Literally ran into this situation last night where I actually didn't even go up for the block because I was so late and felt like if I did I'd probably just get tooled or make things worse for the defense, and I think at least a couple people on my team were displeased, lol... so this was good timing for this video, hopefully I can commit my options to memory and execute, and preferably even just not be late 😅
