I'm Steve Olson, and if you want the short version: nothing else in the game happens until somebody passes it. I'm Steve Olson and I coach 10s at CVA. Ask me about serving and you'll get a while on that as well. That's on the back of the better part of a decade coaching, two of them with this age group. Come watch a session. What happens in my gym says more than anything written here.
What a night in the gym looks like: divided between position work and full-team reps. What I do after a bad error in a close set: I coach the next ball. The last one isn't coming back.
Adult USA Volleyball. I still play beach.
I'd rather families hear this from me than guess: every kid on my roster plays. They're young. The scoreboard can wait. I'll save you finding this out in February: an athlete who only wants to hit and skip the rest.
The thing my athletes won't drop is the one phrase I repeat about four hundred times a practice. I spend the rest of the week as an engineer.
On communication: I'd rather hear a concern in November than find out about it in February.
