the Unexpressed Advantage

I played volleyball in high school and college. A lot of people don't know that, but once you've known me long enough, I usually end up talking about it because it's something that I'm pretty proud of. Unfortunately, when you've played volleyball at a highly competitive level, it can be quite frustrating to play at any other level. Most people think that volleyball is a fun thing people do at a picnic, but it's actually a very technical game. To play well, one can't get by on sheer athleticism or ability, they really have to know what's going on; both with their own body to perform the volleyball mechanics correctly and also in relationship to the other players on the floor. Volleyball can be like a dance, the whole team moves together in unity to create a successful outcome.
