An advantage to volleyball is that you have a scoreboard to tell how you have done as a team. The thing is, in life there is no scoreboard, at least not one that you can see.
sports ears mouths
Too many coaches have too big a mouth and not big enough ears.
sports player kind
You can be harsh on your players and still coach, but it is easier when you are kind to them.
sports mistake team
Coaches need to have the ability of tact - to teach the team to rub out mistakes rather than to rub them in.
sports play opponents
Never back down, never fear anyone, for the best opponents will help you to play your best.
sports strong jobs
It's hard for these athletes to stay healthy. They are constantly being bombarded with unhealthy advertising. Peer pressure can override the body's demand for health. Being healthy goes beyond 'not being sick' (where all lab reports indicate health), to feeling optimistic, energetic, strong and happy with their bodies. Teaching them to take charge of their bodies is a job of coaching. Help them gain discipline in conditioning, nutrition and attitude/emotional control.

If you are serious about volleyball, the only months to stop playing are those without a vowel.
sports thinking choices
There are three choices in life and sport - either you do it, you don't do it or you think about it. Most humans think about it. We will do it.
sports volleyball giving
Being left-handed has its advantages in volleyball. Few people know enough about your spike and serve to give you advice.
