Two steps forward; one step back (Rookie Rant)

Hang in there guys, it does get better. The only way to eat an elephant is a fork full at a time - try to swallow the whole leg at once & you're going to choke.. Pick one or two things at a time and focus on those.

Tournaments are a great place to practice. During the season try work as many tournaments as you can, then pick one or two things to focus on for that day.

If you don't have a volleyball background, get a book or look up some web resources on coaching volleyball & study those.

One of the best ways to learn alignment & front row/backrow is as a spectator, when you don't have the pressure of other duties to distract you. If you get a chance this winter, go watch some club tournaments & practice tracking the setters & players as they rotate through the positions.
