Most volleyball players are made in the winter, spring and summer, for come fall, everyone practices equal time.

There is no such thing as 'staying in shape;' you either work to get better, or you allow yourself to get worse.

Study hard, practice hard, play ferociously.

Never back down, never fear anyone, for the best opponents will help you to play your best.

Coaches need to have the ability of tact - to teach the team to rub out mistakes rather than to rub them in.

If there is something a coach might wish to see changed in a player or team, the first place to check and see if it could not be done better is in yourself.

Play your heart out each game, so you can look your teammates in the eyes and ask, without saying it, 'I played full out, did you?'
