Remove the Volleyball Practice Barriers to Entry

During this weeks Leadership Development session, Coach John Castillo brought up a great point for our young athletes: remove the barriers to entry.

Quite simply, make it as easy as possible for you to get in some extra reps whenever the spark for play arrives. Do this by:

• Putting a volleyball out in the open in your house wherever you spend the most time (family room, bedroom, etc)
• Put a grass net in your backyard
• Makeup a game that you can play by yourself or with a friend at home

If your volleyball is tucked away in the garage or in your backpack when the moment of inspiration strikes, you are less likely to follow through.
