The Importance of Specificity in Volleyball Practice

"We've always played volleyball with specificity in mind at BYU," says coach John McGowan. "I don't know why it's such a hard sell, because they believe it with their whole hearts" Coaches persist in violating this basic principle: Why? I can't understand why. We're going to want to hit some spike serves at these guys, but we don't have anybody that can hit it hard enough or often enough."
