Beth Van Fleet on blocking, How Georgia State Beach selects partners, and Jeff Jansen's workbooks

Friday, August 30, 2024 • Duration 33:46

Beth Van Fleet, a beach volleyball coach at Georgia State, joins The VolleyPod and shares her insights on teaching blocking techniques.

She emphasizes creating hesitation in the attacker's mind through route, depth, timing, and hands.

She uses visual cues, such as focusing on the attacker's hips and getting hands above the net, to improve timing.

Feedback for blockers includes using video analysis and loops to help them understand their positioning and timing.

Beth also highlights the importance of intelligence and creativity in blocking, rather than relying solely on size.

In this conversation, Beth Van Fleet discusses the process of pairing or creating partnerships in beach volleyball, particularly in the college space.

She emphasizes the importance of considering skills, communication styles, and work ethic when forming pairs. Beth also mentions the use of psychological testing and personality quizzes to better understand players' communication styles and preferences.

Additionally, she recommends resources such as Jeff Janssen's workbooks for building team culture and leadership skills. The conversation concludes with a discussion about Georgia State's unique beach volleyball facility.
