Is anyone else like really good in practice and then when your in a game you get really nervous and mess up
Editzzz Tv yes! The reason I get super nervous is because I’m so focused on if I’m in the correct spot and not actually how good I will perform lol
It’sJust Shiloh Happens to me as well, that mostly has to do with experience. Give it a while and eventually it will all be natural
Sometimes my legs shake because I don't in if I'm in the right spot or not and I'm scared that I'm gonna do something wrong while serving or getting like getting it over the net
fabuloussimon32 definitely, I’ve been recently taking private lessons and I’ve been doing way better
Ikr?? I could play like a pro in practice but in the real games it's just....
Im a senior and these girls are being taught better than I ever was.
Hi
You are luck you got to play volleyball..
He's a good teacher. It looks like he's nice and not giving pressures to his players.
jieson genciagan no he's not you want a mean hard coach they will make you a better player
@@narwal3797 You do not need to be a mean hard coach to make better players 🙄
@@narwal3797 theyre like 3 yrs old they dont need a mean coach
@@narwal3797 No, not for me, I rarely perform well under pressure so it is better if the coach is nice but blunt at the same time
Well I don't think this video shows how he is as a coach because a) This was being filmed and b) I've seen coaches change when matches are around. Chill in practice and complete douchebags during and before the game
I wanna be the little gaint
Yung oofie same.
Not a lot of people will get that
Haikyuu fans😁
Haikyuu inspired me to play volleyball lmao
Bruh I wanna be a Libro like Noya.. but also a spiker like Hinata 😂😂💀
This helped me a lot. When I first tried out I didn’t make the team because I couldn’t spike but then I watched this and begged them to let me try again and then I made the team and now I’m the captain. Thank you so much
Kenny hall 😘😘😘
r/thathappened
Omg congrats!
That’s a little fishy
Even though it may be fake, this inspired me a heck ton
i’m only watching this because haikyu made me want to be a volleyball player
same
Natalie same
Natalie same 😭
Not only me! Same
@Natalie, Me too.
wtf my coach is just "play till you learn" i got yelled so many times by her
Wtf. She's a "coach" for a reason. That's her fault
Same she didn’t even show me how to spike she only showed me once and that was it -_- like she expect us to know what to do
My coach expects like a bit of knowledge but he actually helps and stuff
No shes a roach.periodt.
idh a coach tho i learn it thru youtube videos and observing other players
0:01 " Hey. Spiking is fun." I sure hope so, bud.
Juliana Mejia Spiking is fun. I'm a outside hitter. (But I play all around)
Spiking is lyfe 😂😂 i always spike then ok just ok 😂😂
TBH I don't really like spiking, sometimes I dread spiking time when it's time to practice it. My favorite time is service time and spike-and-receive drills. Idk I just don't enjoy spiking. My teammates think I'm weird cause they usually hate receiving drills and when the coaches watch our services closely. I'm so weird XD
The short one wearing the long sleeve shirt is awesome!!
Little Giant!
i started playing volleyball half a year ago and I really didn't get how to jump and then spike until now. nobody could explain it in a way that's understandable for me (I'm a little dumb in this sort of things). now, with the countig of the girls 'right left right left jump' I got it. really a great help for me. thanks a lot.
avi-chan kawaii Heko
Winner of a video, I been tryin to find out about "seated volleyball drills" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Renndrew Volleyball Victimless - (just google it ) ? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my co-worker got great success with it.
avi-chan kawaii hi 😘😘😘 It’s up to me it’s up
Kenny hall 😘😘😘🥰🥰
🥰🥰🥰 hi
Why isn't our coach like this T_T
Jetemen same
Ours is good but very strict but I also play on club so that's why
Want to jump higher??? Do these! If you do them consistently, in 1-2 months you will see improvement Feel free to add weights :) -Calf raises x20 -Ballet squats x15 -sumo squats x15 -squat hold 1 min -jump squats x15 •things to remember!!! -use your arms to jump, it will give you more momentum -go really fast so you can jump higher -position your hips to face the setter, it will make your hit powerful -use your non-dominant arm to aim and follow the ball. I call it archer pose -keep working on it! I love volleyball and I’m so happy people agree. The sport has grown so fast and there are many amazing people that find they are awesome at it!! You guys got it!
I'm trying out for our volleyball team in the upcoming event....i'm only a good libero, my receives are always on point and accurate but...the others who are trying out are also liberos/good at receiving so..thinking of losing my place I'm trying to learn everything..so yeah, wish me luck
any updates pal?
good luck!!!
i demand an update. now.
its been a year i would like an update lol
UPDATE PLEASE
I stopped playing volleyball because my family member passed away but when i watched haikyuu I started to play volleyball again I was a little giant and i jump really high
what is your height
I’m in high school and I’m 4.3
And I’m now a tiny giant
@@adh3m in cm?
@@adh3m no way youre 130 cm
Volleyball is my favorite sport and I have decided to learn how to play. The problem is that, due to financial issues, I'm not able to get the proper teaching in order to achieve my goal. Is it possible for me to keep getting better by simply the "free" help that the Internet can provide me with?
Dennis absolutely! Just keep learning all you can and practice! Want it bad enough and you'll become good enough! Go kill it :)
Gabe Dalhoff very much. The only downside I can see is someone not telling you if your form is correct/incorrect and tips to help with form and stuff like that based on what you’re doing
@@k1ea.273 I think the only way he knows that his by filming himself since he got no one profissional to correct him!
Just make sure you're watching some credibal sources! People who actually know what they're talking about :)! I reccomened watching tons of gameplay from university/olympics. Watch their form and every little thing they do to make the perfect pass or spike :)!
i went to a volleyball camp this year as a very very inexperienced beginner and when trying to learn to spike counselors told me to “high five the ball” and i never got the hang of it. after watching this video i saw exactly what i had wrong- i didn’t lead with my elbow. this video has taught me so much. thank you so much
Omg the right-left was so helpful
Kenny hall 😘😘
That perfect observation on 3:47 is the reason that he is a trainer :-)
I wonder how many people have been inspired to play volleyball by the anime Haikyuu
Me lol
Im one
You know it’s a good anime when it inspires its watchers to pick up a whole sport lol
Solaura bro I wanna, but only two and I are the only ones who we wanna play, were all males
A lot because i am now up at 6 in the morning because of it practicing hard..
What an awesome drill, gonna use this on Monday!
I love Volleyball! -The girl in tthe he white shirt w/ long sleeves
that's you?
You are the bomb, Tod Mattox. Played all through middle school, high school, and college- just started coaching middle schoolers and I haven't, for the LIFE of me, been able to remember how I learned the basics! This will be awesome for teaching some of my first timers!! Thank you!
I wish i had teammates as good as these girls
ernestine Kenny hall 😘😘
That “right left, right-left” really helped me A LOT omfg so thankful
Awesome job coach!!!!
I am trying to learn volleyball and watching them got me all excited to learn, thank you for posting this so long ago. :)
I loved the game you played with the girls, great job. Thank you.
The right-left, right-left thingy was so helpful. 👏❤
this short video taught me more than some of my coaches who teach me. Thanks so much!!!!
I've been playin volleyball for 6 years and yet my timing of swinging is still kinda off
Kpop IS Lyfe I’ve been playing for like 4 years
Same lol..I've been playing for 9 years but my timing is still meh..ergh
I feel youuu
Did you "sight 90"?
I’ve been playing for about 3 or 4 years and my timing gradually got better by practicing jump serves.
Love this, been using it in my practices. The Flamingo was huge and helped at least 4 girls!
This was so helpful! Thank you for this!!

That’s my sisters school coach lol
He’s a nice coach
If I hear someone say “flamingo” one more god damn time
i can tell the girl w the long sleeved white shirt had some serious hustle
0:34 sooomeeboddy wants told me the world was gonna roll me
impressive.....
Hes really a gud coach
wow i liked it
Omg these are little kids and they are fr amazing. That one girl dived to get the ball they can hit the ball decently and can all approach for the hit wtf I wanna be coached like that.....
Great tutorial! At what age should this be taught? I just started coaching and have 10&11 year old girls. Thanks
Not once have i ever wished to be short... thanks hinata
*When your YT knows that you suck at spiking and need help with it* This video: Allow me to introduce myself
It’s Tod!
Bokuto San nice kill
They pretty good for beginners...
video pada step 1 (armswing) tersebut menjelaskan tentang gerakan tangan lengan pada saat memukul bola. posisi tangan menghadap lurus ke arah bola
I play for a club called pipeline and my brother showed this too me, i reccommend a 4 step approach, more steps equals better power and accuracy
Shouldn't the footwork be left, right, left not right, left?
Kristen Ngo if you are left handed than it is right left right
theyre doing the 2 step approach. 1 big step from you right and one close left step.
Both are correct. The main thing is ending with your left step as your last step if you are a right handed hitter. So for a 2 step approach, it would be right, left For a 3 step approach, it'll be left, right, left And it'll be the opposite if you are a left handed hitter. Right, left, right
depends on 4 steps or 3 steps
Thats just a faster preparation
I need a tip to ba a good player because tommorow is my game pls pray for me
Jammy TV here is a tip and don't go to just practice go do stuff on your own and it helps
Did u win
Chismosang Kapitbahay Kenny hall
Its good
my highschool said they'd welcomed players with any experience level so I went, practically got ignored (only one girl begrudgingly helping me) then the next day the coach told me to leave because I was dragging down the team and they don't have a b team... so much for any experience level welcomed. They didn't even try to teach
the girl in the white is a natural
When I first started, I thought myself the basic. Than I watch video's on how to properly do it. Now I'm gud at it ;p
Do u think it's to late to start playing at the age of 15?
Im almost 16 ( in may) and im tryna play volleyball
@@tiana1736 its never too late
Don't be shy admit that ur here cuz of Haikyuu :))
Hey spiking is fun
The redhaired girl with the white shirt reminds me so much of myself! (Also have red hair). I wish I had this kind of coach, she always tells us not to jump. I am very short and can't get over the net without jumping
Do you have hand techniques for Beginners with a volleyball?
You can search for more videos on KZhead or join a volleyball camp/club.
Hello 👍
me, a libero watching this: damn i've been playing for 5 years and still mess up my steps (partly bc im left but i tend to copy others and take the steps for right-handed hitters and mess it up once i have to hit it-)
the white sleeves is good at spiking and save
I got back home from school last Friday,we were playing volleyball with the 8th grade and we beat them some of us needed to go on their team in order to make a game,😂😂😂
I haven't got my position for club yet but I have a powerful arm good approach and jump high but every time I try to actually hit the ball it never hits my palm 😞
Haikyuu got me addicted
I had been playing more than 3 years.But i don't get the timing to hit. Can u help me
I wanna be the TINY GIANT
Pada video ini di perlihatkan bagaimana sikap tangan lengan saat memukul bola dan awalan sebelum memukul bola.
back to volleyball after covid super sore my hitting timing is horrible
She asked how do we know when to start our approach and he said just do it but you're suppose to wait till the ball reaches the highest point
Skysky no u r supposed to contact the ball at the highest point so the ball can go down and start your approach when the ball is in the setters hands
Aubrey Sheppard exactly.
Aubrey Sheppard you contact the ball at your OWN highest reaching point, not the balls highest point
I miss playing volleyball in the court, we cant bc of this stoopid pandemic :v
I know, right??? I was gonna get signed up to play Volleyball in a club but the pandemic started and everything messed up. Todavia no he podido jugar aun despues de casi un año 😩
1:50 is that the guy in the back from elevate yourself?
I’m watching this for Nishinoya and Tanaka
So I started learning this at 19, and I'm 20 now, and am still complete crap at it. And I do volleyball 9 hours a week
Do u think if I do tryout for 10nth garde? I'm also 5 ft tall so that doesn't help I can only be a libro
Those kids are better than me lmao
Haikyuu makes it look so easy to jump but in reality 😭😭😭😭
When no one is looking I jump up in hit the isle signs At Petsmart. That’s easy but hitting the ball is so much harder.
I disagree that elbow should go first in swing. This hurts shoulder, makes attacker lose height and power of spike and gives poor ball control on high level of volleyball. From my experience elbow has to stay from the side during spike, approximately on the level of shoulder. I am an ex professional player and several times in my career I had to correct my technique to stop hitting with elbow in front Everything else I agree and it is interesting and useful for me, because I'm going to be volleyball coach and right now I teach new players, most of them have zero knowledge. Thank you for this video
That's just how you should move while spiking, throwing, etc. Otherwise you restrict yourself from actually, properly following through. At least that's what my coach told me and how I perceived it.
Max Talk N How? I am afraid I didn't understand whether you agree with me or with coach from video
Dmitriy Vdovin Oh I'm sorry, I agree with the coach from this video. Your (I'll just say) theory may be true though, it's just how I thought it's best. Maybe I'm just confusing something.
Max Talk N Well this is not theory. This is experience gained during playing for over 15 years in several European and Middle East championships
Dmitriy Vdovin Oh okay, I'll try "your way" tomorrow at practice!
i had my 7th grade girls try the 2 step approach drill, with the hope of just doing something different would help their approaches, most of them are unable to do the drill. I tell them it's more of a jump than a step, but they end up just charging the net and never turning their hips to the wall
I'm a high school varsity player now but when I first started playing in 4th grade I used to do the same thing!
Who cares ... :D JK
dont tell me im the only one watching this because of haikyu
Must practice. We must win against the higher grade
