Trying simply provides an excuse for not doing.

Alter strategies and tactics, but never your principles.

Study hard, practice hard, play ferociously.

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

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

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?'
