Some selected video from Warrnambool taken from my $200 DV-cam i bought from Strathfields. Possibly didn’t get the best volleyball our teams played since you don’t usually get a whole lot of time to film stuff when you’re coaching.
Having left it till late to decide going, I couldn’t take the day off and leave early with the rest of the club, so i ended up doing the long drive on my own. I got in at Midnight and Min gave me a hot bowl of pasta.
Our girls teams did pretty well. They’ve been to U15 nationals in the past and enjoy playing tournaments now. Our younger girls playing div 2 women have really improved over the last few months under Ingrid Randva, a former captain of the national team whose daughter now plays for us.
As Min said, I ended up jumping on the court. We had 10 inexperienced players and they were struggling to get enough rallies going, so Michael (the coach) and I started jumping on with them from the 3rd match. We alternated sets, taking 5 players each. I don’t usually like jumping on, but it ended up being good to help them out and make sure they didn’t lose their morale against much stronger teams. They got a lot better which is good. I played libero for a set but took myself off after i shanked a couple of passes in a row!
