The older coaches say, "This generation of players is not the same as ours was". They want young players to be like they were at that age because only in that way they will understand the game.
But it is good that the new players are different and think differently. These players use new ways of hitting and therefore the game is full of completely new situations, which makes us think and become better coaches.
Becoming a player that has a lot of strength is possible at any moment during the career, but being technically capable and creative is not. We live in 2021 and I, as a coach, reflect on where volleyball is going, which are the latest trends and how I can be helpful to my players. We all see how volleyball is changing and developing and every good coach has to (should) react and adapt to changes.
Pay attention when practicing only the weakest playing skills. These skills should only be at a level in which it does not hurt the team or the results.
A team that wants to be successful for a long period of time has to lower the difference between the concentration during practice and during games. Therefore, achieve the same level of playing skills during practices and during games.
