This week's skill is a coaching skill -- adding two contact games into your practices. This is an underutilized, easy to implement method which can speed up learning as well as provide a ton of additional benefits for the athletes. Speeding up the ways our athletes read is important to every team, and two contact games can be a simple but effective way of enhancing this ability. Plus, using two contacts stresses ball control and can help athletes to build decision-making abilities quicker than waiting for these situations to present themselves in games.
In our scenario segment, we discuss a scenario that certainly applies to many teams at the high school or club levels, only having two primary passers on your team. Davis and Tod discuss both the long view of not having enough passers, and the shorter-term view of having to win now without enough passers.
We always share one great resource each week, and this week it is a very cool resource on Instagram called BounceBeach. BounceBeach is essentially a highlight video collection from the world of beach volleyball, but it is curated in a way that allows for study of the best athletes that beach volleyball has to offer as well as the innovative tactics that they are using to raise their level of play and get more wins.
