Rally Together with the NCR VolleyProm & WIN

North Country Region wants to encourage all of our members who missed out on your prom this Spring. Prom is a big deal, and we are truly sorry that all of your prom plans were blown apart by what is happening in our world right now, and because we in turn missed out on seeing all of your fabulous prom posts, North Country Region announces our very own virtual VolleyProm - beginning today through next Friday, May 15th.

We know that many of you already had your dresses and suits, and we want to give you a reason to pull those out of the closet and get all dressed up for a photo shoot if you haven't already done so. Our goal is to put together a VolleyProm Photo Gallery of all of you in your fancy prom duds side-by-side with one of your favorite personal volleyball pics. So grab that stunning dress or suit, get all fancied up, and take a picture for us to share in our gallery - we want to celebrate you!

Moms and Dads - you can participate, too! How amazing would it be so see some old prom photos posted side-by-side with pics of supportive volleyball parents?? Please go dig out those old photos - we want to see them!

Post your side-by-side photos to social media and tag North Country Region to be included in our VolleyProm Photo Gallery and to be entered into a drawing to WIN a Molten USAV official game ball - perfect for practicing those skills while we all #StayHome!

Rally Together with a Weekend Family Project!

It's Friday which means the weekend is here - yay! This weekend how about spending some time on a fun family project - building a setter target that will provide hours of volleyball practice while we #StayHome. I've heard a few great things about this particular target: Relatively simple and inexpensive to build on your own Target basket is adjustable to different heights and angles Not too heavy to move and transport Families who have used the below plans to create a target have tailored them to their specific needs - one following the plans exactly and one varying slightly the target shape and adding a net (see Hally's video above). Both devices work well for their individual purposes. The plans are even simple enough for players to help build themselves with a little supervision! Shalyn building her own setter target! "Measure twice, cut once!" And here's the finished product in action . . . . The plan

Rally Together with a New Weekend Family Project!

TGIF! Looking forward to the weekend, and no better way to spend the weekend than another fun family volleyball project! Just like the last project we posted ( a Setter Target ), this rebound board will provide hours and hours of volleyball fun and valuable reps! The plans for this particular rebound board were created by engineer by day/volleyball dad by night and weekend, Greg Samson, who graciously agreed to share them with all of us! These plans include diagrams and detailed instruction, making them easy to follow, and the board itself is made to last. This is definitely a volleyball project worth investing time and effort into building. The rebound board can be used by one or more players as demonstrated in the videos below. Using the board with the Setter Target is a great way to get setting reps off of a "live" ball - it's about as realistic as we can get right now! A genuine "thank you" to Greg for not only creating these plans but also for sh

Rally Together with Thursday Technical Training - This One's for You, Setters!

Today marks our final Thursday Technical Training post, and we've saved an important one for last - this one's for you, Setters! Making time to get those reps in daily will elevate your level of play and finding that rhythm and consistency will put you a step ahead of your competition. Grab your volleyball and check out some of these setter training videos: Setter U shared a challenging Setter Medicine Ball Warm-Up on their Instagram feed. If you're a setter, definitely give them a follow - the Setter U Instagram page is loaded with tips, inspiration and training ideas - some of which include the following training tools we've posted about here on our Rally Together blog: Rebound Board & Setter Target ! Olympian Alisha Glass (and former Penn State setter!) demonstrates two at-home setting drills that she uses. Find them on the Art of Coaching Volleyball website HERE ! Team USA setter, Lauren Carlini (and former Wisconsin setter!) walks you through some side
