the top 100 Things Every Volleyball Player Should Know (Cont.)


I hope you are enjoying these! They are great for all players and all ages! Here are 61-80! Highlighted are some of my most important!



"
61. Always have a pump in the trunk of your car.

62. Hit your rainbow shot until it lands out of bounds.

63. In beach doubles, when in doubt , hit deep middle.

64. Never give an opponent an easy ball.

65. Don’t pay cash for an entry fee at a beach tournament until you’ve seen your draw.

66. When playing pickup, serve the stronger player for better practice.

67. Know that volleyball was invented in Holyoke, Massachusetts, not Manhattan Beach,
California.

68. When you’re losing 10-0, don’t settle for not being bageled. Think about coming back to win.

69. Face where you’re setting.

70. Read the block, then the hitter.

71. Have a shot for every set.

72. When filing out your player bio, add two inches to your height. Or round down, so they’ll be even more blown away when you stuff block them twice in a row.

73. Shoot the ball over if you can’t jump and hit.

74. Understand that if you’re player better than ever at age 45, you weren’t very good when you were 25.

75. Block the low, hard one.

76. Know where the endline is.

77. If your opponent is shorter than you, ask them if they think the net is high enough.

78. If the ball is higher than the top of the net, it’s hittable.

79. For lunch between games, skip the cheeseburger and go for a PowerBar. Or leafy greens, per Russ Marchewka’s recommendation.

80. On the beach, don’t get locked into playing one side; it limits your partner options.

Have a great day!

Lauren
