WHO IS READY FOR Volleyball Tryouts!!
These athletes are!! Good Luck to all athletes at their High School tryouts this week and to all Club athletes on Sept 6. We had over 120 athletes out last week in 2 gyms getting in some reps so they are ready to compete next week! Some things to remember for tryouts next week….
1. Be Prepared - Expect tryout to be on the first day of school, have your gear and be ready, there could be 60+ other athletes.
2. Be Prompt - Show up early, say Hi! to coaches and introduce yourself, you want them to remember you.
3. Be a Great Teammate - help setup nets, s**g balls, jump in to help demo drills, cheer on teammates and give lots of high fives!
4. Stand out- Wear clothing/shoes colors so coaches will remember you.
5. Be Loud & a Great Communicator - Call Loud “MY BALL or MINE” before you take every ball, yell/ask for the ball if you want to hit, point and tell teammates they got the ball when they call for it, read and voice out what’s happening on the other side of the net, before during and after the play.
6. Be a Goldfish- Know that you are going to make some mistakes, forget them right away and move on. Volleyball is a game full of errors to get points, it’s which players that get over the errors faster and makes less that is successful.
7. Be a Rockstar - Have fun, work hard and enjoy the tryout, you had the courage to come to tryouts and you got this!
Good luck from Cougars Volleyball Club!! 😺
