Coach Jiri Shares Tips and Coach Saban Explains, "It Takes What It Takes"


Be open to 'pearls' from every coach you encounter. Coach Jiri shares volleyball wisdom. Alabama Football Coach Nick Saban lays out his expectations for players:

1) Do whatever it takes to become your best.
2) Avoid doing whatever will interfere or distract you from becoming your best. 

Volleyball attack and defense embraces that in microcosm. Do whatever it takes to score points and to simplify the game. Coach Jiri shares truths:
  • Don't give away points on the serve. 
  • Avoid passing or setting the ball too close to the net.
  • Communicate. The athletic setter will get to the ball.
  • Stay out of the net. 
  • Always be ready in an athletic position on defense. 
Lagniappe. Exercises we don't know. 

  • Spanish squats
  • Hip extension
  • Lunge backwards
  • Forward jump with resistance
  • Backward jump with resistance
  • Approach jump with resistance

 "It takes what it takes."
