The first day of the Volleyball England Level 3 coaching course covered an array of subjects.
I'm starting the Volleyball England Level 3 course today, continuing a coaching certification process i began many years ago with USAV CAP I.
It takes more than playing experience to become a good volleyball coach. Coaching and playing involve quite different skill sets.
In the early stages of a career coaching volleyball one goes through a particularly sensitive phase of learning and information gathering
Volleyball coaches need to think long and hard about how much they talk during practice. In most cases, less talking is much better than more.
If you don't properly understand the coaching technique, drill, or game you have just learned you will struggle to put it to good use when applying it.
Observation is part of the learning process for coaches. That means watching lots of volleyball is critical for your development coaching volleyball.
In 2013 I visited 5 US college volleyball programs with loads of ideas and things to think about. A recommended experience.
Watching other coaches in action can help validate your own training methods and/or philosophy, as it did with me when watching USC volleyball training.
