The seeds for a successful program are sown in the elementary schools with the help of the high school coach.
THE FIRST TIME I SAW OUR high school's senior volleyball team play several years ago, I was impressed by their heavy hitters and powerful attack. With their three big guns up front, they appeared to be a great team.
Sure enough they went on to capture the league championship, win a number of tournaments, and come within a game of making the provincial championships.
Since graduation was going to cost the team several of their big guns, the question in everyone's mind was: Could they do it again next year?
I doubted it, but my skepticism turned to admiration when I checked out the personnel in the early practices. I had to be impressed by the depth of the skill players. From positions I through 6 and all along the bench, every player could serve, pass, and spike with authority.
