POSITIVE TEAM ATTITUDE!
Volleyball is a a team sport. All team members should demonstrate positive attitudes during practices and games to create positive team chemistry despite abilities/wins/losses. There are no individual divas in volleyball.
CONSTANT MOVEMENT!
Volleyball is a game that requires constant movement. Hustle, awareness, and fast feet are traits a successful volleyball player will exhibit whether they are directly involved in a point or not.
MENTAL STRENGTH
Do you give 100% when you are on the floor regardless if the team is winning or losing? Do you get down when you make a mistake while playing? Do you let your emotions determine how you play? A positive mental mindset is necessary for anything... volleyball and school!
COMMUNICATION!
Do you have difficulty shouting out "MINE" or talking LOUD verbal ownership of a ball coming towards you? Communicating with your teammates ON and off the court is essential for playing volleyball.
We will also be evaluating your ability to set, pass, dig, serve, block and spike a volleyball. If you don't have all of these skills, don't worry! We will be looking for ability, potential, and a willingness to learn.
GOOD LUCK AND DO YOUR BEST!!! Work on Serving!!!
