  1. im a guy who loves to play baseball and does play some "beach" volleyball and as they always say "practice makes perfect!" i hope that helps

    im u r best answer =D


  2. you need to join a club team during the off season of school vball and it'll make you a better player.

  3. I am really short, but played throughout my high school career. THe most important thing is to have faith in yourself. If you want to be a setter, practice setting. If you want to be a defensive specialist, practice digging balls if you want to spike... practice jumping ALOT.

    Have faith, and have fun. The coach will hopefully want the best all over team, not just the tallest team. Give 150% and they'll be missing out if they don't choose you.

    Good luck

  4. ALWAYS keep you eye on the ball  when you go to pass. Watch it come righ tto your arms.. keep your arms straigh and locked a the hands... keep your right foot forward facing to the target along with your sholders... when serving... make sure you toss the ball right infront of the arm that will hitting it over.. one foot forward, swing your arm all the way through after contacting the ball. blocking do not watch the ball focus on the should of the opponent.

  5. I played vollyball for 15 years.  Practice is great you should have knee pads so have your friends through the ball on the ground while you run and slide to make sure the other team doesn;t get the ball. They really watch to see if you can set it or slam itc over the net with out hitting the net.,

  6. Hi! I have a few tips for you!

    1) When you go to bump the ball, keep your arms stiff and straight, locking your hands together, and try to hit the ball in the middle of your arms. Don't let the ball hit too much of one of your arms, but hit the ball evenly so it goes straight ahead.

    2) When you set, don't keep your fingers stiff. That doesn't make the ball go very far. Instead, let your fingers be like "shocks", let the ball be absorbed by your fingers and then throw the ball back up into the air. It will go farther, higher, and will be more accurate.

  7. WELL JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE SPORT IT DOES NOT MEAN YOU ARE NOT GOOD STOP PRACTING SO MUCH YOU ARE GOING TO END UP HURTING YOURSELF YOU MIGHT END UP PULLING SOMETHING THAN YOU CAN'T PLAY WELL AS LONG AS YOU CAN SERVE GOOD AND HIT IT NO MATTER WHAT THAN I AM SURE YOU CAN MAKE IT I SHOULD KNOW I PLAY VOLLEYBALL FOR 5 YEARS

  8. Just have fun!!

    I didn't think I'd like it at all, but now I love it.

  9. That should make you good at bumping and setting. You should look at becoming a Libero. Good luck.

  10. DO NOT BE AFRIAD OF THE BALL

    Do doge the ball

    dont hit it if it goes out of bounds

  11. Be confident with your playing. Height isn't an issue if you're a good player.

  12. Hey, well i also agree, Practice makes perfect and also i heard that short people are better in volleyball.

  13. if your good then you will make it and get some cheers and show your coach and maybe you can find a way to do stuff easy I hope you make it.

  14. Well, I've been trying out for my school volleyball team for the past 3 years, and this year I finally made it! It's good that you're practicing a lot, that's a key to getting better. Coaches will look at people who are putting in the extra effort, so try your best, and work extra hard in practices! Here a couple of volleyball tips that might help you out:

    - When bumping the ball, don't let it be all in your arms! Bend your knees, get in under the ball, and keep your arms even to one another. Also, don't hit the ball off your hands, hit it off the lower arm.

    - When volleying (setting), bend your fingers. Don't keep a straight hand. Let your fingers form a triangle, and gently lift the ball off your fingers.

    - When serving, hit the ball hard! You need to have enough power to get the ball over the net.

    Also, just be a good sport, work hard, and carry your weight. Don't expect everyone else to hit the ball. Also, don't let yourself get walked all over. Call the ball, hit it, don't always step out of the way for others.

    Best Of Luck with your tryouts!

  15. Just do your best and if you try out and dont make it you shouldnt stop trying. You should keep practicing. Remember "Perfect Practice" not just practice. Height doesnt matter, the only thing that matters that is you love the sport and God will take it from there.

  16. don't worry about Ur  height.just show how much u love this game. show Ur best give it Ur all.you can be the setter or the libero or back court player.never quit just becuz it hard.
