Think positive, real volleyball happens too fast to think any other way.

An advantage to volleyball is that you have a scoreboard to tell how you have done as a team. The thing is, in life there is no scoreboard, at least not one that you can see.

There is nothing less important in life than the score after one game of a two out of three game match.

Most of us are referees at heart; we like to call throws and errors on someone else.

Kids on a team are like flowers in a bouquet, there is always one that wants to face a different way than the arranger desires.

You cannot turn your winning attitude on when you think you 'need it.' You must work on it every day, every practice, every match - win or lose. Focus on playing to win, not playing to lose, for there is a season of difference between the two.

You must allow your players to become the athletes they can be. Don't make them into anything just to become the kind of winners fans, friends and others think they must be.
