VOLLEYBALLOGY UNcensored

Most of us have seen it.  The coach is talking & ‘selling’ but the team isn’t listening & ‘buying.’  This is a coach who has ‘lost’ their team and it’s virtually impossible to get the players back.  So, why does it happen?  Well - there’s the easy answers, like the coach is a ‘screamer’ or doesn’t really offer constructive or helpful criticism, but there are also less obvious things that coaches do everyday that undermine the faith and trust their players have in them.  Listen in or watch as Zuby & Erik discuss the deeper causes behind why and how coaches lose the attention of their players and why athletes might be ‘checking-out’ mentally as the season drags on.  Aside from the negatives to avoid, the guys also address practical positive things coaches can implement today to help ensure that players are all feeling valued and ENGAGED throughout the long club season…and will run through a brick wall for you!  As always, we hope you enjoy the ideas and insights raised in this discussion and invite you to get involved and let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
