TBH Episode 9: Beyond the Box Score: Developing Skills with Numbers
In this episode of 'Triple Blockheads,' the hosts Makani, Marc, and Frank discuss the significance and application of statistics in the volleyball world. They explore how stats can help athletes differentiate themselves, improve their skills, and develop their game at various stages, from middle school to high school and beyond. The conversation covers key metrics like kill percentage, error percentage, and hitting efficiency. They also discuss the importance of setting realistic goals during practice and how conditional statistics can improve specific skills like serving and hitting. The role of advanced analytics and technology in tracking and analyzing stats is also examined, alongside the evolving approach to using stats in team strategies and individual training. Finally, the hosts emphasize that while stats are valuable, they should not be the sole focus, especially for younger players, as overemphasis can hinder developmental progress.
