This week's skill is how to train your players to deal with the most difficult calls that refs have to make so that your team can win more matches. There are many situations where knowing the rules of volleyball can either lead a point for your team, or a point for the other team. Davis and Tod discuss how to get your players to recognize the challenge of deciding these calls and how to handle the close calls, both before, during, and after the close decision. Managing the close plays well can help your team win more points and matches.
Our scenario segment focuses on match coaching and how to become in this important aspect of the game. Tod has an awesome list of what to do to become a better match coach. The list begins with "be competitive but not combative" and continues on with Tod's wisdom making a veritable treasure trove of information for how to manage matches. This talk is valuable for experienced coaches, too.
For our resource segment we share a fascinating podcast that talks to the world's best coaches and gleans important, powerful insights that anyone can use in any sport. The Great Coaches Podcast is a wealth of information from the top of the top coaches in their respective sports. Many of their talking points resonate not only in the sports world, but in leadership and in life. On the Psychology of Successful Groups, with Samantha Rockey, is just one terrific podcast of many that can be found on the site.
