Volleyball Observation

993 Words4 Pages

It is the first day of volleyball class and all of the students are waiting to get started. The class begins, as the coach, I start by taking attendance, going over the rules of volleyball, then leading in to the different ways of hitting the ball. After going over the fundaments, the students would go through the game of pepper to get a feel for the game. The last part of class I would have the students play an actual game so they can get the true feeling of moving for the ball and touching the ball. Taking attendance at the beginning of every class is important to get a feel for the students who want to learn how to play volleyball and those who have no interest. After taking attendance, I would move on to explain the game of volleyball. Before getting to in …show more content…

Pepper consists of partner 1 tossing the ball to the other, partner 2 passing the ball back, partner 1 setting the ball, and partner 2 attacking the ball. After partner 2 attacks the ball, partner 1 immediately reacts and passes the ball back restarting the sequence. This is a good game for students to play to not only warm up but also get a feel what a game will feel like. After the students are warmed up and ready, I would have them split up into teams 6 making sure the teams playing against each other are at about the same level. I would not however move people who have played volleyball over to a group that is still learning. That turns out to be less fun for the volleyball intelligent students. Having them play a game is a way for them to see volleyball is fun but also get more into the game. A few rules I would include starting out is they are only allowed to serve five times in a row and they need to hit the ball three times per side before returning the ball back to the other team. I would also encourage them to use the sequence bump, set, spike when returning the

    378 Jump shots bouncing off the rim, passes to the wrong team, a silence where one could hear a penny drop, and the word “BASELINE” is what I remember from practice two days before the Highland Park game. We were playing live against the scout team, but we were playing them like they were the ‘95-’96 Chicago Bulls with Michael Jordan at the helm. After a few minutes of this nonsense, Coach McKendrick told our team to get on the baseline to run. However, it was not because we were playing poor. It was because our captains were not talking to our team and bringing more energy to our practice.

    “We need to get involved in the UIL of the public school system or at the very least introduce racquetball to the school system as a club sport with competition between schools. We need to have delegations approach the clubs to encourage them to not take out racquetball courts or to add courts to their facilities. “Our state organization needs to make a push to encourage more players to offer their time to promote and teach juniors. At tournaments there has to be a push for parents to bring and enter their kids in tournament, be it sending invitations to the parents, giving breaks in family entry fees, offering activities for the kids on Saturday night to entertain and add extra fun not just racquetball, highlight the junior division play so other kids not participating might get interested.

    If I was the coach, I could have several ways to try to win and change it up a little bit. Even though everyone normally knows where they are playing because they always play there, I would ask were they want to play and put them there for practice and see how they do and if they do good then maybe they will get to play there in a game it won 't hurt anything. Right now the varsity and Junior variety split up for practice but I think we should stay together, if we stay together the coaches have a better opportunity to see who has the ability to play varsity or who can play where, to see who is good and bad. The coaches should push us harder at practice and maybe we can win more.
