volleyball clinic

i participated in a volleyball clinic today. the clinic went over the basics, passing, setting, serving, and hitting. surprisingly, i got the most coaching from serving, which i thought was one of the stronger aspects of my game. i guess it was because the drills we were doing for serving felt the least comfortable for me.

the setting drills and coaching was very helpful, i’m hoping that i’ll be able to apply some of these new techniques in my game. i had a lot of fun with the open gym play afterwards. it was very different from the play that i’m usually used to, the overall skill level was pretty good. it was surprising to see so many good players at this clinic going over the basics. i guess brushing up on the basics can never get old.

there were quite a few stanford coaches or stanford players who were helping us out with our form. it was overall pretty cool. i think my body isn’t able to take this kind of punishment for long though, and i’m going to rest up for the rest of this weekend. there are two playoff matches next week for me!

oh yeah, my thursday night team made playoffs! pretty cool. i can’t wait to play.
