      Koko Volley can you make a video about serving? That's one of the things I'm struggling on because If I hit it it just goes to the side of down it wouldn't go over the net. Thanks for the vid! ❤️

      Natalie Zhou noo, I play varsity basketball and volleyball so I have separate shoes for both. Basketball shoes are not that flexible so I recommend getting some really cheap volleyball shoes since good basketball shoes are pretty expensive. I would recommend getting some Nike’s or adidas which are really cheap, you’re school team may be like mine where they give you shoes!

    Our volleyball tryouts were just around 4 days ago, and I made it. Theres a super nice girl, lets call her Sam, who has NO skills (from never playing), but she has a remarkable attitude and helped everyone as much as she could. There was another girl, who we'll call Erin, who was a decent player but had an awful attitude and was very rude to everyone around her. Sam made the team and Erin didnt, so you definitely need to make sure that you have a great attitude!! Skills are coachable. Attitude isnt.

    I watched this vid when I first started playing 3 years ago and made the team first try and here’s some updates and tips that I learned:
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    🏐hustle hustle hustle! dont slack or walk when you’re supposed to be running, dont let the ball drop in front of you, etc.
    🏐always call your ball so coaches know that you’re a good communicator
    🏐never stop trying even if you mess up or are struggling with something. i struggled with my serve at first and felt like giving up but I didn’t, now it’s stronger than ever :D
    🏐DONT be afraid of the ball!
    🏐pay attention when receiving advice from coaches and learn from them
    🏐be patient: everyone starts somewhere, don’t expect to become a volleyball pro after one day
    🏐most important tip: HAVE FUN! Don’t get down on yourself if you make a mistake!! If you don’t try to have fun, then trust me the sport won’t be enjoyable at all

    Hi! So my tryouts are tomorrow and I am extremely nervous. I am pretty new to the sport and I can’t overhand serve very well despite me practicing. I can never time it right :’( but I don’t know If that will affect my chance to get into the JV volleyball team. Tips or suggestions would be extremely useful 🙏🙏. I used to be in a volleyball prep and I was alright at saving the ball if that helps my situation at all. I know that I am going to be practicing my serve even more though. Thank you if you read the whole thing ✨👊.

    Hi, Koko! I started following you since last year and I got inspired by your vlogs. It has always been my dream since elementary to be a volleyball player but I chose to focus on academics so I gave up being an athlete. I regret that I turned down my dream. And now that I am quite old, that dream of being a volleyball player keeps coming back whenever we have sporsfest in our company. Now, I don't want to be one of the audience watching on the sidelines, I want to be a player so I decided to tryout for volleyball. It feels scary and exciting at the same time. I try to learn by watching your videos and I just want you to know that you really inspire me a lot. I'm 29 and I have lots of questions in my mind. 🤔 Isn't it too late for me to learn volleyball at this age. Can I still make it? Can I be good at this sport? And a lot more. These are some of the questions I have right now. And the only way to find out is to just do it, show up, give my best, and pray. Please continue makiny videos about volleyball. Thank you, Coach Koko! 🙏

      Sure, you can wear a tank top! However a brightly colored one will help you stick out from the crowd. We’re trying to increase visibility

    I know that it is a year old video but i have a few questions. Can you wear sketchers? Can you wear short sleeve athletic shirts from like Academy Sports wear? Where can you get a good sports bra? Where can you get a really good volleyball? Where can you get good knee pads? If you answer, i will really appreciate it because i really want to learn so i can try out an be a reallly good player.
