Episode 191 - Leon Blazer, Ashley Clarke & Collin Henry

1 hour 27 minutes Posted Nov 17, 2023 at 12:00 am.

The pitch for kids wanting to try out for your club, what you expect from them and them from you, the value of a good culture.

The process of becoming a club coach vs being a player who coaches, or a coach from a different level. Also, process, technique and preparation

Things coaches look for in the tryout process, players understanding the "why," eye work, taking in information

Parent's onboarding, communicating with directors, players, coaches, parents, the "24-hour rule," the "48-hour rule," the clashing of the ego identities, more on process and preparation, seeing what happens behind closed doors coming a mile away.

where we as coaches have shown significant improvement, and where we can get better

The easiest thing to teach fundamentally or what they learn the fastest, also, the most difficult thing to teach/learn

Without getting into the length of the resumes of playing and coaching (waaay too long), Collin Henry is NYC juniors, Ashley Clarke represents Surfside (CA), Leon Blazer represents Houston Stars (TX), and I will be repping for Los Angeles Volleyball Club.
