Sixteen-time State Championship coach Ron Kordes creates an atmosphere of success and an attention to detail that will help you get your future volleyball stars off to a solid start. The more you teach early and correctly, the fewer bad habits you will be correcting later on.

Coach Kordes utilizes young athletes in the video while he masterfully demonstrates the Three Components of Teaching a New Skill:

• Model the skill
• Have athletes do the skill with player-initiated drills
• Provide athletes with positive feedback

Part one of this two-part video focuses on teaching techniques for Forearm Passing, Over and Underhand Serving, Setting, and Attacking.

Part two focuses on progressive drills that teach the same skills and reinforce those skills in game-like situations.

Each skill is broken down and thoroughly explained and modeled by the young athletes before a progression of both coach and player-initiated drills are introduced. Peppered throughout the video, Coach Kordes shares many coaching points and tips to make teaching the skills easier and more effective.

Coach Kordes wraps up the video with several combination drills to keep your athletes challenged and engaged, developing a lifelong love of the great sport of volleyball.
