I conducted volleyball interviews of collegiate, pro indoor and pro beach players as a volleyball writer.
In this section you'll find a collection of more than 30 interview questions I asked some of the top volleyball players in the country.
The volleyball interview questions I asked were:
- What makes you special?
- What accessories and/or equipment help you play your best?
- What pregame habits, rituals, or superstitions do you have to do before every game?
- Who or what inspires you to play well in each match that you play in?
At the end of each series of interview questions you'll learn five fun facts that describe what each player accomplished that week.

Serving slang is not just about individual techniques; it also relates to overall game strategy. A coach might instruct a player to serve a "short serve" or a "deep serve" to target specific areas of the opponent's court or exploit weaknesses in their serve receive formation.
Ari, my private training client and I are working specifically on serving on jump float cross court serves ...short to Zone 2
There's so much we work on to get to this point where she can contact the ball with
- the same toss height and same toss location
- the same armswing speed
- the same timing for when her serving hand contacts the ball
- the middle of the hand contacting the middle of the ball every single time
- getting use to watching her serving hand contact the ball at the highest point of her jump ...before she starts to land
- and finally contacting the ball in the precise spot on the ball so it goes where the coach wants the player to put it so in this case ..a short serve in the farthest short right corner on the court also called Zone 2.
