How Coaches and Players Use Volleyball Quotes and Volleyball Sayings in Training?

Coaches can use volleyball quotes and volleyball sayings to emphasize certain theme players need to focus on. Some examples:

• When a team is struggling with their blocking and digging up balls, the coach can name “defense wins games” for practice theme for the week.
  
  The coach uses this particular theme in pre-game or practice meetings and brings it up as much as possible.
  
  The coach builds his practices around the theme to make sure players will focus on improving team’s defense.



• It is very common among successful coaches to use themes in various context to guide the training.
  
  For example they often select a theme for the whole season, for example “from runner up to winner” to remind players which is the goal of the season. 



• Coaches use quotes and sayings in pre practice meetings or huddles to inspire and motivate players for practice. 
  
  For example players think and go through the meaning of team work quote together and one after another express the meaning of it.
  
  Often those quotes can be applied to real life outside volleyball which is an important aspect of coaching, especially when teaching and educating younger junior volleyball players.



• One important aspect of coaching is to teach volleyball tactics and strategies along with the skill development. This can be started at early level, when remembering to keep it simple. 
  
  
An efficient way to teach game tactics to junior volleyball players is to apply clear and understandable volleyball slogans, which the coach uses over and over again.

For example the coach can emphasize three things for a beginning setter: “against one blocker", "set to longer distance" and "find your hot hitter".

In practice the coach repeatedly explains to a setter “against one blocker” stands for trying to set the ball to a hitter who has only one blocker against her. Set to longer distance stands for a purpose of trying to set the ball from the right side to longer distance to the left side, or the other way around.


• When the coach uses particular volleyball sayings often enough in practice, a young player starts remembering the slogans and picking up the tactics fairly quick.
  
  
• Using short volleyball slogans will also benefit the coach in matches, in which it is reasonable to give short and simple information to players. Players can use the same idea of short slogans when communicating with each other during the match.
