Win more volleyball games using these simple (but not always obvious) strategies!

Have you ever been accused of "having favorites" as a volleyball coach? If the answer is "no," it's probably just a matter of time! 

In this episode, I break down my theory on why players sometimes struggle with the decisions their coaches make. 

Deciding playing time, making your team, choosing captains... You can make these decisions easier on yourself and clearer for your players by first defining your values, sharing those values, and therefore giving players the framework they need to grow. Ultimately, this will reduce accusations of favoritism from players and parents. 

Please review the podcast and share it with a coaching friend!

On this week’s episode of the Get The Pancake Podcast, I speak with a good friend of mine, Lynette Ray. Lynette has a wide range of experiences in the volleyball world… from officiating to being the director of a club program, this former college athlete and current volleyball coach has a ton of experiences to share… and she’s only 28!

Listen in as she shares how her current 18’s team is dealing with the 6-week gap in their season due to coronavirus, some of the most surprising feedback she’s received from her players, and advice for coaches when they’re officiating. If you’re anything like me, you’ll walk away from this conversation feeling inspired and motivated to be a better volleyball coach.

I'm just going to be honest with you... when it comes to skill development and comfort on the court, open gyms are better for most players than camps or clinics! You can improve the quality of volleyball in your area by simply offering a 1-2 hour open gym every week, provided you create a great learning environment for your players! Follow my tips to see a jump in overall skill and awareness on the court with players in your area.

NOTE: Coaches may have restrictions on the interactions they can have with players out of season, so please check with your local governing body before scheduling open gyms!
