[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another U14 parent here new to club volleyball, and my kid tried out for 5 teams and was shut out entirely even from a couple of the lower tier teams. What a discouraging situation for an enthusiastic teen who tried really hard and committed to 12+ hours of volleyball tryouts over past weekend. What options do these kids have? How do kids develop and improve if the coaches expect them to show up fully packaged? She is a strong player but does need to work on certain skills. But how do they get better without the coaching? She is not happy about playing Rec again bc she isn’t learning much and is already a top player there. She was really hoping to step up to the next level where the leagues play regulation rules and actually serve etc. and they can play tournaments. [/quote] I'm really sorry to hear about that and do feel for her. At the top of my head, one thing I would suggest at this point in time is to consider clinics that really focus on specific skills such as receiving and passing. Some clubs/organizations do offer those (but it may not be always throughout the year, only at certain times) and some could provide info on private training. I checked really quickly for one in Maryland and saw that MD Juniors has info on private lessons. This is the URL: https://www.mdjrs.org/clinics Of course, which organization you go to depends on where you and your daughter are based. [/quote]
