WHAT WOULD YOU TELL YOUR 17 YEAR OLD SELF ABOUT CLUB VOLLEYBALL?
I would like them to know that, anytime they want they can reach out to me if there is any questions or doubts, I would like them to know, that I am there for the team, for them individually, so they can be better players. I am a coach that likes a loud and confident team, this is a two way communication relationship.
