Episode #8: How to Win in Volleyball When It's Really Windy
About this episode
Ready for the beach volleyball podcast?
Guys, today Head Coach Mark Burik and Co-founder Brandon Joyner will talk about how to win in volleyball when it's really windy. In beach volleyball, the wind can cause problems because the ball's flight might be unpredictable. This can make serving, passing, and hitting extremely difficult. But retrain your mind to see the wind as a friend rather than an opponent, because no matter what you do, it will not listen to you and will not change. Let’s sway in the wind of beach volleyball in today’s episode!
