Using Science to Develop a Team Game Plan and a Volleyball Coaching Philosophy

Important Points:
Men’s Game:

1. The statistics revealed that the worst thing you could do in volleyball in the men’s game was to miss the serve.
2. The second worst thing you could do was serve a ball that the opponent passed perfectly.
3. The third worst thing you could do was to serve a ball that the opponent passed “okay” (a 2-point pass)
4. and the fourth worst thing was an attacking error.

Important Verbal Cues Share in This Video:

• Worst thing you can do in men’s volleyball: 1 – Miss serve, 2 – Lollipop serve, 3 – Semi lollipop serve, 4 – Spike Out
• Hips for power – Hips rotate around and axis
• On the toss – Tossing arm straight – No moving parts
• Toss ball in front of hitting shoulder
• Less is more

We often will add additional verbal cues. We tend to have 20-30 cues per skill. I know that sounds like allot however this includes cues for “Getting in the Zone,” “Reading the Game,” and “Slowing the Ball Down.”
