Coach Rob will be the Head Coach for the 18U Team. Below are his objectives and goals for the 2025 team.
- Learn how to play as a team without the help of a coach (this will be a skill players will need as they start joining leagues after high school)
- Learn how to make real time decision on court position.
- Learn how to initiate plays on a consistent basis (tandems, shoots, back row, etc), and when to use. Especially the cool or fun plays.
- Learn how to read the competition and adjust strategies in real time (again, without coach)
- Learn how to create lineup & make changes as needed based on competitor.
- Have FUN! Volleyball is meant to be fun, and sometime with the high pressure of winning for school or club ball, kids forget that the game is for enjoyment, creating friends and impressing parents/fans with great plays.
