  15. Substitution Rules - House • Use “Continuous Substitution” • Promotes equal playing time • Players on count and bench are one continuous line-up • With each clockwise rotation, two players rotate off the court and two players from bench rotate on to the court • Start each subsequent game with players in the same positions as the end of the previous game Net 5 4 3 6 2 1 7 8 9 10 Server McLean Youth Volleyball

  21. Important Documents • Always carry copies of the following documents to practices and matches: • Team Roster with parent phone numbers • Facility Use Permit • Your VBD certification • NCS Inspectors DO visit gyms McLean Youth Volleyball

  22. Coaching Considerations • Focus on fundamental ball control skills: serve, pass, set, hit and *movement* • Practices should reinforce these skills • Use drills that encourage as many player “touches” as possible • Simulate game play over the net • Explain to players/parents that the focus is on ball control using multiple touches, not winning as many points as possible through one touch “Ping-Pong” • Promote communications and CHEERING!! • Provide positive feedback • Defer to referees McLean Youth Volleyball

  23. Other Coaching Resources • Placing Coaching Supporting materials on the new For Coaches page • Skills instruction and diagrams • Sample practice plans • Drills and tactics • Links to videos • Excellent on-line resources • USA Volleyball • Guide for New Coaches • John Kessel’s Volleyball Basics • John Kessel’s Mini Volleyball book (large pdf!) • YouTube videos McLean Youth Volleyball
