Hi Firecrackers!
Great job in Huntsville this last weekend - we went 2-2 (matches) for the tournament in 13 Power, beating Sting 13-1 and BVC 13-1 pretty handily, and loosing only to NASA 13-1 (who we later learned were ranked 2nd in the region) and in 3 games to Delta Force 13-1 in bracket play on Sunday.
The level of play you ladies have accomplished is right on par for being over half way through the season; more consistent serving, being better at setting up an offensive play, and being able to adapt to our opponents style of play. In our second game against NASA, we were neck and neck, and at one point ahead, which shows us you girls have the drive to play highly competitive volleyball.
We now know to move on to finessing our attacks - being more consistent and aggressive. The next few practices will focus on this element of our game.
I know some of the you have missed some practices recently, and according to our MISS policy, you owe some serves. I am going to try to arrange in the next week or so for the girls to stay about half an hour after an upcoming practice to do their serves against another team.
I personally had a great time with the you ladies in Huntsville; with all the down time, we got a chance to laugh, giggle and get to know each other a little more and I loved it!
@ Next practice:
- Bring you last homework assignment, if you haven't yet already (being positive on the court).
- Bring your February Fitness Calendar.
- Be ready to focus and work hard!
See you Thursday!
