How do you get athletes motivated?

Inspirational volleyball quotes help with determination.

Determination

How do you get them to show up on days when they really don't feel like it?

Help the find the "why". Why are you doing this?

When I ask athletes this, this is usually what they say. "Well, I want play in college." Then I ask, why do you want to play in college?

They then say they don't really know. They haven't thought about that. You want them to get into the details of what it means to go to college.

Do you want to go to any college? Community college? Why do you want to go there? Is there a special program there? Do you want to live close to home?

Or do you want to go to a Division I college?

You want to get the athlete to spell it out for you. Write it down and re-visit this often. Get into detail is the key to motivation.

Intrinsically motivate your athletes.

At some level they need to want to play for their teammates. And at some level, they need to want to play for their coach. When they don't want to let their teammates down and don't want to let their coach down, they'll play at an extremely high level.

How do you create an environment where the kid is going to play for their coach?
