Guess what? We have Coach Matt Olson today!!!

Having a SOLID partnership is one of the best methods to win more beach volleyball matches. In beach volleyball, each of our touches needs to have a purpose, a target, and a direction. Even if your pass lands exactly on your platform, it won't matter if you don't direct the ball to the area where your partner will have the simplest time setting you up. Even if you place it too far outside or behind you, it won't matter if you have the earliest of sets. It doesn't matter whether you make the crispest of shots if they land in the middle of the court. So, in order for you to know, CHECK THIS OUT!

In this episode, Mark Burik and Travis Mewhirter discuss the transition from playing to coaching in beach volleyball.

They emphasize the value of understanding each other's needs and using strategic advice and support to improve relationships. The episode concludes with a discussion on supporting and coaching coaches, and the road to success in coaching. In this conversation, Travis Mewhirter discusses the ranking and performance of the Try and Came team in the Olympic race. He highlights the importance of breaking through the quarterfinals and the team's consistency in making it to that stage. Travis also shares insights on the qualification process for the Olympics and the points threshold needed to qualify.

Travis discusses the influence of commentating on his coaching approach and the value of mindset and strategy in coaching. He concludes with a call to action for listeners to support the podcast and coaching programs. Takeaways Building trust and effective communication are key in coaching relationships. Understanding different athlete personalities and needs is crucial for effective coaching. Creative problem-solving and constraint training can be valuable coaching techniques. Coaching skills can be applied to personal relationships to improve communication and understanding. Supporting and coaching coaches is important for the development and success of the sport. Breaking through the quarterfinals is crucial for the Try and Came team to improve their ranking in the Olympic race. Consistency in making the quarterfinals is a strength of the Try and Came team, but they need to win more quarterfinal matches to advance further. Qualifying for the Olympics requires accumulating points through top finishes and aiming for a threshold of around 7,000 points. Confidence and mental chemistry are key factors for the success of the Try and Came team. Coaching requires working harder and dedicating more attention to the game compared to being a player. The transition from player to coach can be facilitated by the skills and knowledge gained from commentating and analyzing matches. Short serving is an effective strategy in beach volleyball, and players should focus on specific areas to dig instead of trying to touch every ball. Mindset and strategy are important strengths for Travis Mewhirter as a coach. Coaches can provide valuable insights and guidance by asking the right questions and helping players find solutions on their own.
