Volleyball for Boys & Girls

This book is a modern and uncomplicated guide to learning volleyball at a young age. Colorful drawings of boys and girls illustrate the correct movements and actions for the young player in a very clear and informative way. This book takes into account that the age of 6 to 14 years is the most convenient for learning. It is this age in which the greatest biological growth and the development of technique, speed and agility happens -- and therefore in which the basics for a great volleyball player can be learned. In using their own approach to a combination of technique and condition training, tactics and competition, the authors make their great experience in coaching available, in order to make the most out of the development of every volleyball player.
