From the first lesson, I felt like I was being coached right on the court, with each step explained in a way that was easy to follow and apply. The guidance on fundamentals gave me more confidence in my game, and the strategies made me rethink how I approach teamwork and competition. Listening while practicing helped me connect the advice directly to my movements. The narration kept the energy high and engaging, almost like having a mentor encouraging me. It’s been a real boost to both my skills and my mindset.

I don’t know much about volleyball, lol, but this book really surprised me. It’s not just about drills it also covers fundamentals, team dynamics, mental resilience, and even parent communication. I loved the focus on positive reinforcement over pressure.

The narrator did a great job making it easy and enjoyable to listen to, even for someone like me with little knowledge.

Fantastic topic!

This book is not just a collection of drills; it covers everything from the basic fundamentals of a bump and a serve to the more complex aspects of team dynamics and mental resilience. I particularly appreciated the sections on parent communication and handling team dynamics, as these are often overlooked but crucial parts of a positive youth sports experience. The focus on positive reinforcement over pressure is a key theme throughout, and it's a valuable lesson for any coach or parent.

My two nieces just got into volleyball, and suddenly I was the uncle who knew absolutely nothing, just smiling and nodding from the sidelines. I grabbed this audiobook hoping to understand the basics, and it delivered way more than I expected. It breaks down not just the rules and skills but also the team dynamics and coaching philosophies in a way that was super easy to follow. Now I can actually talk to them about the game, and I even passed a few tips on to my sister. Salem Arbuckle's narration is clear and engaging, perfect for the subject matter. This is a fantastic resource for any parent, coach, or clueless but well-meaning uncle trying to support their young athlete.
