Overview
The book includes ideas for easy, introductory, mini volleyball games for young players (ages 6-10). These games are both entertaining and instructive, teaching the young players the volleyball basics. Next the book explains how to use small-group games, such as 6 vs. 6, to teach more advanced volleyball methods and skills to older players (ages 13 and up).
The various drills and games are explained in detail, often with accompanying photos and illustrations, so coaches of any level, from beginner to more advanced players, can easily implement them into practice sessions.
A short introduction to beach volleyball is also included to round out the information, making this a book all youth volleyball coaches need on their shelves!
