Synopsis

Kathy has been the executive director of the American Volleyball Coaches association since 2006. She is also the author of Gender in Competition, a book on coaching about how men and women approach competition in different ways. She is a very knowledgeable woman and she shares her wisdom with us in this episode.     Kathy first talks about what the AVCA does for coaches in the USA but we quickly dig into more concrete stuff like random and blocked practice. We go on to talk about the data the AVCA has been collecting in order to create a new tool to help coaches help their players achieve the college level. It is truly fascinating. But my favourite part of this interview is the advice question from the Quick Attack Question Round. She really nails it even though I modify the question and she sheds light on why coaches sometimes get mad.   Website: www.technicaltimeout.com Facebook Page: /jumpvball Twitter: www.twitter.com/lpmainville Watch our Tips of the Week on Youtube
