|  | | Frustration Drill
 | | | |  | View a drill from Volleyball Skills & Drills Execution: Players position in lines of two as passers (P), setters (S), and hitters (H) on both sides of the court. A ball being tossed from the first passer on one side to the setter on that side starts play. After tossing the ball, the passer joins the setter’s line. The setter sets the ball to the hitter and moves to that line. The hitter two-hand passes the ball over the net to the passers on the other side of the court and goes around the net to join that line. The passer forearm passes the ball to the setter on his or her side and continues in that fashion until an error is made, at which point the entire process begins again. The goal for this phase is for the ball to cross the net 10 times consecutively. When that has been accomplished, the drill is started over with both passers simultaneously tossing a ball to the setter on that side, and the drill continues as before. Now, however, with two balls in play, focusing becomes much more difficult. Movements need to be faster, and communication becomes important. Again, the goal is for the ball to cross the net 10 times consecutively. If enough players are available, introduce a third ball as the drill progresses.

| | | | The 2012 Power 100
| | | |  | The 2012 Power 100 ranking of the most powerful athletes in sports (created by Bloomberg Businessweek and Horrow Sports Ventures) was just released. What's interesting is that athletes used to be measured more by their performance on the field than in business. Today, that is no longer the case. In order to be deemed successful, athletes not only have to perform well, they also must have a certain rapport with the public. This Power list looks at athlete's performance both on-and off-the field. For an inside look at the multibillion-dollar world of professional sport, pick up a copy of Beyond the Scoreboard by Rick Horrow, America’s leading expert in sport business, and coauthor Karla Swatek and check out the Inside Sports Business web site and app! | | | | Subscribe, unsubscribe, or customize your email preferences, here.
