Practice Like You Play

In volleyball, how you practice shapes how you perform in games. For under-15 players, developing strong practice habits builds confidence and game-time readiness. Here’s how to practice like you're in a match:

  1. Bring Game-Day Energy

    Approach every drill with the same intensity and focus you’d bring to a real game. Treat your teammates as opponents to elevate the competition and prepare for high-pressure moments.

  2. Consistency and Communication

    Consistent effort in serves, digs, and blocks during practice ensures reliable performance in games. Work on clear, confident communication to build a cohesive team that thrives under pressure.

  3. Learn and Simulate

    Use mistakes as chances to improve and build resilience for real matches. Treat scrimmages and game-like drills seriously—they’re key to sharpening skills under pressure.

  4. Celebrate Success

    Celebrate small wins in practice to create a positive, game-like atmosphere and build a winning mindset.

By practicing with purpose and intensity, you’ll be ready to bring your best to every game. Remember, champions are built in practice! Keep working hard, Sundogs!
