Answer 1

Volleyball must be the best sport in the world. Are you trying out for a professional league or your high school?

Most gyms offer personal trainers. A personal trainer could really help your game. But, as efficient as they are, they also can be expensive. Many gyms, schools, and sports complexes offer clinics which really give you a head start. And, many times the coaches head the clinics, so they will all ready be looking at you before try outs begin. That is a good thing :)

If you want to train at home, I would recommend running and jogging. It will really help your game. I remember when I tried trained for try outs, I would volley a ball against a wall. I managed to break a window in the process, but it really did help. Remember to keep your arms straight though. When you are volleying against a wall it is easy to develop the habit of bending your arms, especially in a small space. Lifting weights also would help you prepare for tryouts. You need a lot of upper body strength in volleyball.

The coaches usually are looking for players with a good athletic ability, potential, diligence, comittment, and spirit. Remember to be aggresive and go for the ball. Hey, you may miss a few, but the coaches will like it if you atleast try. Call the ball. If you don't, head on collisions will occur (ouch).

I tried out last year, as a freshman, with very little experience. I had a good attitude and tried my best. Sure, I didn't get every serve over or didn't save every ball, but I made the team. Good luck making the team! I am sure you will do great!

Stretch a lot so you wont get muscle cramping or anythin. When u call 'mine or got it' for the ball, say it lots of times SUPER LOUD so everyone hears, but not tooo loud. Be aggressive, go for the ball. Practice ur approach...left right left foot. Dont eat or drink too much before tryouts otherwise youll cramp up. Hope i helped! Good luck with tryouts!
