Competitors Versus Rivals

Practice fosters competition not rivalry. Bill Russell, one of the greatest players ever to play basketball, preferred the term competitors to rivals. Ironically, a major book about him and Wilt Chamberlain is "The Rivalry."

This year's team features a wealth of experience and talent and players will compete vigorously for spots in the rotation. That's how it should be.


In this drill, two hitters and a setter compete with one point awarded for a kill, one point subtracted for an attack error, and nil for digs.
