Authored by a volleyball dad survivor, Digging Club Volleyball is packed with information specifically tailored for the parents that are; considering, have recently joined or already have several years "invested" in their child’s participation in the exciting world of club volleyball. It is not meant to be a volleyball drill book, a volleyball coaching bible or a definitive resource that gets you inside college volleyball. No, there are plenty of splendid resources readily available on those topics and Dan will freely share the best resources that he felt benefitted he and his daughter most.
Digging Club Volleyball is a firsthand account of a family that was initially ill-prepared for the club volleyball experience but by luck, much prayer, dedication and resolve, somehow managed to successfully navigate this often confusing world of club volleyball. You will gain a leg up by learning what worked and what didn’t work along their journey.
Digging Club Volleyball will make you laugh as Dan candidly shares every aspect of their club volleyball experience from day one. It includes the process they followed when deciding what club to join, preparing for and attending tryouts, attending their first national qualifier, dealing with club coaches & owners, college recruitment, communication, visits and all that intricate process entails.
You will learn what strategies were employed that contributed to not only an enjoyable and successful club career but the actual steps they took that enabled their young club volleyballer to secure a scholarship to play volleyball in college.
The bonus material offered at the end of the book could be sold as a standalone book by itself but Dan insisted in providing the additional value as his way of giving back to the parents that are just embarking on this special adventure. As a result, you will now possess the actual tools he used to continually encourage and equip his daughter to be successful in club and college volleyball.
All that remains is for you to dive in and prepare yourself for the exciting world of club volleyball.
Enjoy the journey!
