Coach Kevin Eastman says, "you own your paycheck." Your preparation, your work, your corrections define the player you become.
Ultimately, you become your coach... responsible for building skill, game understanding, athleticism, and resilience.
Use whatever resources you can - mentors, books, videos, blogs, cellphone video.
Do you remember Coach Bill Parcells' cheat sheet with MUST, NEED, WANT?
Think about your situation. Add a couple of specifics.
MUST
- Build platform skills (e.g. passing and digging)
- Improve serve power and accuracy (if you want more playing time)
- Improve footwork (e.g. blocking, passing)
- Increase vertical jump (plyometrics)
WANT
- Play better under pressure (Develop a mindfulness practice)
- Improve conditioning (sport-specific conditioning... running five miles isn't the answer for volleyball)
