I hope everyone has a chance to enjoy a relaxing holiday with friends and family. If you get the chance, send some good karma into the cosmos for the Detroit Lions. They need all the assistance they can muster. Not to date myself, but I do remember when the Lions were the only football game on Thanksgiving. They would annually give the Packers a good go. How I long for those days!
Focus on Club and Youth Videos
We are making a special effort to reach out to the successful clubs in the country to add to our video library. There is a value to watch how coaches that work with the various age groups, especially the young ones. I feel very inadequate when I'm asked questions about players in the 9-12 age group. So, I'm asking for assistance. If you know a good coach for the young ones, let me know and we'll get them involved. I put this video on the site in an attempt to take a step in this direction. I have
also placed a great session of Amber Jaworski working with some 8-10 year old players at Front Range Volleyball Club on the site. She does a great job of teaching movements and postures relating to the game. So, this will be a priority for us to increase our offerings in this general area. Feedback is welcome.
Private Club Collections
Several clubs are purchasing private folders for the coaches in their clubs. This will allow coaches to upload video for viewing by their club coaches and players. A great way to share information. If there is an interest, let us know and we can get your club started.
Share Video Collection
We will be starting a private video collection for VTS members that will be a sharing video folder. If you have drills or games that you'd like to share with others on the site, you'll be able to upload and download the video, share comments and ask questions of your colleagues. The goal of VTS is to share good coaching information. That can come from many sources and I know we have some good coaches under the VTS umbrella. I hope to have this active by December and will be providing more information as to how this will work. I'm excited to have VTS to be part of this concept.
Dartfish Days
We will also be initiating a new service for club that we are terming "Dartfish Days" with participating clubs. VTS staff will come to your club site and perform a Dartfish Analysis of the volleyball skills of club players. We hope to start this after the New Year. Again, we hope to take the skill development of younger players to a new level.
Dartfish Express is Here !!
Dartfish Express is an I-Pad app that allows direct upload to your Dartfish TV Channel from your mobile device. Along with easy upload, you can provide feedback to your athletes by drawing and voice comments. Dartfish Express is a great tool for providing easy access to quality feedback for your athletes. This will be very useful for those teams or clubs that have private collections on VTS. You'll be able to upload video to your private collection and your players can access and download from their homes.
Feedback Welcome
Feel free at any time to call or drop a note to VTS if we can be of assistance. One collegiate member requested assistance in finding him a 6'2" outside hitter. Sorry, but that is above my pay grade. But we do want to help out any way we can. Happy Thanksgiving to VTS'ers.
