It is ok to err, but it is not ok to stop playing; it is ok to lose, but it is not ok to give up.

Volleyball is like going to church ... many attend, but few understand.

The pessimistic coach complains about the play. The optimistic coach expects it to change. The realistic coach adjusts what he can control.

Nothing makes a player more productive than the last minute.

The wise coach takes all the heat when his players lose, and gives them all the credit when they win.

Coaching is something that takes place only when learning does. No matter what you are doing in your practices, if your players are not learning something significant, you're really not coaching. If a player fails in a game, the coach may have failed in practice.

You have to learn every day. You can't be playing every day, but you can be practicing. If you cannot be practicing with a net and others daily, you still can be learning about the game by reading, watching and imaging. You must learn every day, if you want to be a real volleyball player. —
