Participants comprised coaches from all around the country – applicants included coaches of super league teams, first division teams, youth and junior teams in both genders and other amateur coaches.
The workshop was led by the coach of the national senior men’s team, Juan Manuel Cichello from Argentina – assistant to Julio Velasco. The session featured theoretical explanations of updates and modern techniques.
There was also a session on tactics of volleyball, including coaching during the match, defensive tactics, offensive tactics, and analysis of opposing teams.
Cichello emphasized that during the match a coach should take notes for himself, especially on players’ tactical mistakes. During the next training he should work over those mistakes. He explained that a coach should know the international standards of team movement and try to bring his team close to those standards.
At the end of the workshop 30 minutes were allocated for questions, which Chichello answered.
At the end of the session participants asked for more such workshops in the future.
