This week's skill is how and why to develop a more balanced offense. Many teams fall into over-setting their best hitters and can miss out on opportunities to increase their team hitting efficiency. In this episode we discuss how to create more strong scoring attempts merely by getting offense from all parts of the net. Our scenario segment is about when two are sharing a court and how to make the most out of that time for everyone. These ideas are really cool and are sure to help when your team when you share a court. For our resource section we honor the life and legacy of Byron Shewman, a leader in the volleyball community, and an extremely generous person. Shewman was an outspoken advocate for volleyball and founded The Starlings Volleyball Program, a community-based club system, that was able to reach groups of people that typically would not have much access to volleyball. He was also an extremely talented player, and played on the Olympic team, and later on the beach. Beach Volleyball, by Shewman and Karch Kiraly is a thorough look at how to become a high level beach volleyball player.
