Download or read book Aggressive Volleyball written by Pete Waite and published by Human Kinetics. This book was released on 2009-05-20 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With more than 11 million participants in the United States alone, the popularity of volleyball is on the rise, as is the competition within the club, high school, and collegiate games. Coaches are actively seeking methods to get more from their teams. Aggressive Volleyball holds the key to taking players and systems to higher levels by developing a combination of heightened physical and mental techniques that maximize any team’s potential. Similar to a full-court defense in basketball, all-around aggressive volleyball play demands a full team effort. Aggressive Volleyball provides the individual and team assessments necessary for determining how to incorporate and use aggressive tactics, as well as strategies for teaching competitiveness and the communication patterns needed for aggressive play. From offense and defense to out-of-system and transition play, Aggressive Volleyball presents the best way to incorporate this style and attitude into each element of the sport. Author Pete Waite has gained national recognition for his teams’ success in playing an aggressive style. His Wisconsin Badger team not only is a power in the Big Ten Conference, but it’s also a perennial challenger for the national championship. Like his style of play, Waite holds none of his instruction back in Aggressive Volleyball, providing direct guidance for coaches to raise the level of their teams’ performance.

Your mindset is the difference maker. The Dream - operating in a state of relaxed concentration and confidence in your ability to execute with a precognitive notion of where the ball will land next.

I've packed it full of practical confidence building strategies and tips to help players maintain their concentration on the court.

BROOK COULTER, Associate Head Coach Colorado State University 2012-2015 and professional playing experience 2002-2007 (Slovenia, Austria, Spain, Germany, Holland) - "Rundle gave a presentation on the Headstrong principles and strategies at CSU's team camp in 2015. Our coaches found the Headstrong techniques to declutter the mind, build confidence and prioritize improvement over accomplishment extremely helpful and practical for players and coaches alike. Every coach can benefit from reviewing the section on the 5 mistakes coaches make. The guide offers actionable tips for practice and a game plan to help volleyball players improve their mental game. I highly recommend grabbing a copy of this book and booking her for a speaking engagement at your camp or club." RACHELLE SHERDEN, Head Women's Volleyball Coach Gustavus Adolphus College and 2015 AVCA Central Region Coach of the Year. - "Brooke hits the nail on the head with Headstrong- a concise, relatable, and powerful how-to guide about mental training that is entirely specific to volleyball. I can't wait to share Headstrong with my players and incorporate the principles and strategies from the book into our team's mental training regime. When I think back to my first years coaching volleyball I think about how much I could have benefited from reading and applying the ideologies defined in Chapter 5 about common coaching mistakes. Thanks to Chapter 5, I have a new post-season reflection and evaluation tool to add to my coaching toolbox." JEFF MEEKER, Head Women's Volleyball Coach Cornell College and 6x Conference Coach of the Year.- "This book is not just another tool for coaches, rather is it an entire tool box to inspire growth in our athletes, provide a more positive experience and become better coaches.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Athlete welfare should be of central importance in all sport. This comprehensive volume features cutting-edge research from around the world on issues that can compromise the welfare of athletes at all levels of sport and on the approaches taken by sports organisations to prevent and manage these. In recent years, sports organisations have increased their efforts to ensure athlete health, safety, and well-being, often prompted by high-profile disclosures of sexual, physical, and emotional abuse; bullying; discrimination; disordered eating; addiction; and mental health issues. In this book, contributors lift the lid on these and other issues that jeopardise the physical, emotional, psychological, social, and spiritual welfare of athletes of all ages to raise awareness of the broad range of challenges athletes face. Chapters also highlight approaches to athlete welfare and initiatives taken by national and international sport organisations to provide a safer, more ethical sports environment. As the first book to focus exclusively on athlete welfare, this is an essential read for students and researchers in sports studies, coaching, psychology, performance, development and management, and physical education. It is also a useful reference point for anyone working in welfare, safeguarding, child protection, and equity and inclusion in and beyond sport.
