When events follow the typical sequence of pass-set-hit, typical transition footwork can be utilized, but what about when other, less common, events take place? Has your team rehearsed a plan for each of these occurrences? 

During this episode Tod and Davis discuss how to train for the randomness of transition and become more effective when things are less than perfect. 

Also, the coaches discuss the challenges and fun of winning a 3-day tournament: the before, during, and after.

Finally, we share a new device that can help players to maintain a strong, resilient shoulder and help keep injuries to a minimum AND get a killer workout. AXIO Centripetal Training uses the energy of creating and maintaining centripetal force to make the shoulder and core stable and injury resistant.
