The Invisible Curriculum: 5 Things Your Practice Plan Doesn't Show
Your practice plan has drills, reps, and systems on it. But there's a second curriculum running underneath your entire season that no one writes down and it might be shaping your team more than anything you actually drew up. In this episode, I break down 5 unwritten lessons every coach is teaching whether they mean to or not, and the exact moments in practice where you're either building your culture or quietly letting it slip. These aren't drills. They're moments. And how you respond to them is the real program you're building. In this episode we dive into: The customer service idea Culture Standard of excellence Getting pixie dusted Response to pressure/adversity Team first mentality Coachability Modelling And a few more key concepts Click here to join Digital Volleyball Academy - www.digitalvolleyballacademy.com Click here for my workshop - http://volleyballworkshop.com Reach out via Instagram @BrianSingh_CoachB

In this episode, I share: How the head coach planned each practice around player availability, injuries, load management, and practice goals How they designed drills to maximize volume, efficiency, and game-like reps Specific training ideas for serve receive, middle attacks, blocking, and 6-on-6 How they used competition and scoring systems to increase intensity How technology and a serving machine were used to replicate game speed The importance of players being prepared and warmed up well before practice What stood out most about the mindset and competitiveness of the players Practical lessons you can take from Team Canada and apply in your own gym immediately Click Here to join Digital Volleyball Academy - www.digitalvolleyballacademy.com Join my workshop at http://volleyballworkshop.com Reach out via Instagram @BrianSingh_CoachB

Two Simple Tools To Build More Resilient Athletes With Mental Skills Coach Paige Tony
In this episode, you will hear from mental skills coach Paige Tonz as she shares two practical mental-performance tools from her presentation at DVA LIVE 2026. First, Paige breaks down the pre-serve routine—a simple way to add a mental component to an athlete’s existing physical routine so they can manage pressure, reduce overthinking, and step into each serve with greater confidence. Then, she introduces the Bounce Back Tracker, a simple way for coaches to stop focusing only on mistakes and start measuring resilience. Instead of asking how often an athlete makes an error, coaches can track how quickly they respond and get back on track. Two simple tools that can help athletes become more confident, composed, and resilient under pressure.

Introducing The Motion Offense In Volleyball: The Only Offense That Creates a 1 on 0 Without A Play Call
What if your offense could consistently create 1 on 0's without relying on predetermined play calls? In this episode, I break down the Motion Offense, an advanced offensive system that has been used successfully for over 15 years at the collegiate level. Rather than relying on called plays, this system teaches players to read, react, and create offensive advantages based on pass location, spacing, and timing. In this episode, you'll learn: How the Motion Offense creates 1 on 0's opportunities without a play call. The three base positions that form the foundation of the offense. How middles, pipe hitters, and setters work together to create offensive advantages. Why spacing and "gap control" are critical to the system's success. The importance of reading pass location instead of memorizing set calls. The biggest challenges coaches face when implementing this offense. Why player development and organization are essential for executing the system at a high level. Whether you coach high school, club, college, or university volleyball, this episode will challenge the way you think about offensive systems and give you practical ideas for building a faster, more dynamic attack.
