Description
Listen in as Zuby & Erik discuss the growing problem of toxic teammates in volleyball. As usual, the guys don’t take the superficial approach, but instead examine the - often overlooked - root causes behind these behaviors so players, parents, & coaches can FIRST understand the source (vital) before attempting to address the issue in a meaningful, practical, and thoughtful way. This episode will specifically explore:
The various forms that toxic behavior can take on
Why players attempt to blame and exclude others
Practical approaches for players, parents, and coaches to adopt
Specific techniques players can use TODAY to nullify, neutralize, and ultimately end toxic teammate behavior directed at them
Why it might even be a positive thing for your young athlete to encounter toxic teammates as early as possible
The guys even discuss whether bullying is a natural phenomenon (i.e. from tribal times) or whether it is more a product of our modern world of convenience and leisure time. As always, we hope you enjoy this philosophical discussion and feel free to chime in with your take in the comments below (or via email at info@volleyballogy.org)
