Volleyball coaching is one of the few industries where a “franchise-like system” for coaching / doing business is not available in the market.

Volleyball1on1 has developed the first proven ‘franchise-like system” for you as a High School Varsity Head Coach that guarantees your programs success when coaching High School volleyball players with our “Superior Coaching Systems!” ®.

“Volleyball1on1 has created a 350-page Volleyball1on1 Coaching Manual, available exclusively to High School Varsity Head Coaches, with a systematized coaching formula designed to promote their success. 80% of businesses fail in the first 5 years and 96% fail in the first ten. Coaches leave the profession at that same rate and it is way too high. High School Coaches now have an opportunity with the Volleyball1on1 Coaches Manual to get access to some of the most comprehensive, proven, coaching resources that will help them build sustainable high school programs, and help us, as a coaching community, address these challenging statistics.” – Kathy Deboer, Executive Director Of The AVCA.

“Over the course of one year, Business Format Franchises have reported a success rate of 95 percent in contrast to the 50-plus-percent failure rate of new independently owned businesses. Where 80 percent of all businesses fail in the first five years, 75 percent of all Business Format Franchises succeed!” – The E Myth by Michael Gerber

“A bad system will beat a good person every time.” – W. Edwards Deming, Total Quality Management

“Experts in every field agree on the transformative power of systems.” – Mark Joiner, Simpleology

“Your system is your salvation.” – Andor Gyulai, Co-Founder of Volleyball1on1

During this section of your high school coaches clinic we review proprietary Volleyball1on1 verbal cues and systems for teaching each volleyball skill as well as offense, defense, and transition. All skills are taught from our “Read the Game, Sow the Ball, & Eliminate Pressure” ™ unique approach only available at our Volleyball1on1 Summers Camps.

We believe having a common volleyball language and coaching system is a crucial part of a high school’s successful team culture with a sustainable repeatable system. This also leads to greater “transfer” and learning by players.

The beginner level verbal cues are in the Volleyball1on1 Middle School Manual. These verbal cues are then expanded upon with more advanced verbal cues in the high school manual. The result is middle school players transition to high school volleyball far more successfully and all coaches across both middle school and high school teach the same way using the same language and systems.

At Volleyball1on1 we believe the ability to plan an effective practice is one of the most important skills in volleyball coaching. The Volleyball1on1 Practice Plan Outline Poster © ( 24” by 36” inch) helps make running practices EASY, EFFICIENT, and EFFECTIVE. Our laminated dry-erase poster is easy to write on and reduces the amount of time needed to write down a practice while making it EASIER for all skill levels of coaches to run a successful productive practice every time utilizing our 31 Volleyball1on1 Practice Plans. All Volleyball1on1 complete practice plans provide a structure to run an effective practice every time, which include:
1. Maximize repetition while placing your players in competitive, game-like situations where coaches can offer advice and feedback.
2. Solve team problems, player problems, and life problems daily.
3. Build your team.
4. Teach players important life lessons to build character and become successful adults.
5. Create space for your players to have fun, enjoy time with their friends, and create a lifelong love for volleyball.

This section of your Volleyball1on1 Coaches Clinic includes a selection of some of our favorite drills. We encourage coaches to find additional drills that meet their needs and coaching styles.

We encourage coaches to divide your volleyball drills into 6 main categories:

Breakout Sessions: These are usually small group or individual sessions with players that focuses on very specific needs within a particular skill.

Setter Skill Building Warm-Up: At the youth level and high school level we feel your setter is the most important position. These drills help them get better individually and as a team.

Tutor Drills: Similar to breakout sessions these drills focus on “Tutoring” the players on specific skills with copious feedback. In practice the name alone can really help coaches and players focus on the goal, tutoring.

Mini-Games: Refers to in-practice competition drills / games where players compete against each other on a full or mini-court over the net to a set score. In our experience mini-games are one of, if not the most effective ways to teach volleyball to youth players with very high transfer and should be present in almost every practice.

Serving and Passing: Serving and passing are so important to winning the game of volleyball that we dedicate a section of our drills to it. By giving serving and passing drills its own section it forces players and coaches to think about how we build serving and passing into every practice.

6 on 6 Wash Games / Drills: 6 on 6 Wash games / drills were the brain child of Bill Neville, then USA Men’s assistant coach for the 84 Olympic team. Bill’s goal was to design a scrimmage-like game that increased the number of game like reps in a competitive scoring environment. The wash concept utilizes a goal-oriented scoring system in which the goal is a consecutive number of successful executions.

During the camp and coaches clinic we will equip coaches with some of our favorite drills in each category! Note each drill we share also has videos on Volleyball1on1.com for easy review post camp week.

Our goal is to answer all the questions that you and your staff may have. We find this portion of our Volleyball1on1 Coaches Clinic very helpful and sets a tone for how your and your staff work together even more successfully moving forward.
