How is the training and the season structured in the USA?
Practice takes place on a daily basis. In addition to the workouts on the court, specific strength and endurance workouts are integrated into the schedule, which makes the training very intensive and sometimes a bit more demanding than you may be used to. However, we will make sure that the training regime of your US team will suit you. Due to our constant contact with the volleyball trainers, we know the strengths and weaknesses of the volleyball programs.
The women’s season begins with the start of the fall semester in August and is therefore identical to the season in Europe. The men, on the other hand, do not start their season until spring. The highlight of both seasons are the national championships, which are played in playoff mode in December (women) and May (men).
The games are something very special. The atmosphere in the arena is gigantic due to the fully occupied stands. In addition, television often broadcasts live.
