coaching experience with you. There are 4 total clinics

Skill Development Clinic
When: November
20 - 1:00pm-4:30pm (3 1/2 hours)

game or want a refresher on proper individual skill technique and
development.

Description: There are 4 primary skills used in
volleyball: serving, passing, hitting, and setting. We will
show coaches how to teach those skills using key words, phrases,
and techniques valuable to that goal. Coaches in the 3rd
and 4th grades will find this information very valuable, as will
7th and 8th grade coaches who are new or returning to the
game. Handouts will be provided along with lecture and
demonstrations but bring a legal pad and clipboard to gain the
most from this clinic. We hope to include a question and
answer session as well. Snacks will be provided. Any
remaining individual question will be answered from 4:30-5pm.

are used in volleyball. Learn how these offenses work,
where to position your players, how players switch, what overlapping means, and what
might be best for your team. Coaches will be placed on the
court to become aware of where players should position
themselves. Some basic serve receive patterns will also be
described. Handouts will be provided and all questions will
attempt to be answered. Individual skills will not be

Best Drills Clinic and Practice Management Clinic
When: November
27 - 3:00pm-4:30pm (1½ hours)
Who: CYO coaches who want information on
running drills. A full array of drill ideas and recommended
practices.
Cost: $25 (allows you to any or all 3 clinics
on Nov. 27th)
Description: You volunteered to be the
coach for your daughters team but are concerned about your
ability to run a practice. We will describe time factors,
common sense ideas on getting the most out of a practice session,
and other things you'll find valuable for coaching any level of
volleyball. Drills can make the difference between a good
and bad practice and the difference whether your athletes become
better. Mike will give you some ideas and resources on how to come up
with your own drills and will describe to you some of his
favorite drills to use in teaching different skills.
