CONCENTRATION

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.

If a player has a different concentration in the game and a different one in practice it could have two outcomes (Graph A):

- the player is using hits during the game that he/she didn't practice

- the player doesn't have the hits under control

In case, the concentration level during practice is high, the players can rely on hits during the games that were practiced during training (Graph B).

- the player will use hits during the game that has been practiced

- the player will have hits under control

If we do not adjust these differences between practice and games, the individual players will decrease their performance during the games, which could escalate in the loss of many games.

For better understanding, look at the graphs below:

Russians during WWII let the German troops freeze before Stalingrad and after cutting the supplies of food and gas Germans had no chance to be successful. English air force helped to sink the German battleship Bismarck with slow and old Swordfish planes. The strong canons from the ship could not target the planes.

We all see how volleyball is changing and developing and every good coach has to (should) react and adapt to changes.

ERA OF BETTER COACHES

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.
