7. Our system
‘The game teaches the game’…drills that resemble game play will be primarily used for training
Our training is based upon physio-kinetics of the body… volleyball will be taught by simplifying the skills based upon the natural movement of the body
Statistical analysis of ball movement and ball placement is the basis for our system of training
Standard terms are used across the club for training purposes: wrist in hands, elbow high, arch back, etc.
Individual ball control skills will be encouraged outside of practice to reinforcement development
