Repost: Focusing on Offseason Craft

First, reposting your "Out Pitch." Exceptional players have an unstoppable talent or, more commonly, one dominant skill and "counters." In other words, attacker can smash, but also tip, hit cut shots, find seams, and defend their position. 

The more skills you have, the more ways to get and stay on the court. 

Second, MVB has always been a meritocracy. There's no gifting of positions or time to anyone. Flourish by adding value to the team, impacting winning, and making those around you better. 

Here's a post from Duke Basketball: 

Early last season, a parent said that in their family, there were only two seasons - volleyball season and offseason volleyball. I'm a big believer in multi-sport play, but I respect that level of commitment.
