In this episode of the 'Triple Blockheads' podcast, hosts Marc, Frank, and Makani discuss the structure of the volleyball club season, starting from practices in December to national tournaments in July. They explore the pros and cons of such an extended season, emphasizing the impact on players' physical health, particularly in terms of overuse injuries. The discussion also touches on the discrepancies between different regions and clubs in the U.S. regarding tryouts and season timelines, and how financial incentives influence these decisions. They question if the current system truly benefits the athletes or if a shorter season ending in May could be more effective. The episode concludes with a conversation about the need for grassroots movements to drive change and keep the primary focus on athletes’ well-being.
