 Director's Note

February 14, 2012  
We keep getting better!
At the Tri-County last weekend the competition across the board was tough - and our girls were even tougher! Nine teams competed in GOLD playoffs and three teams brought home medals:
12B - 2nd in Gold, 13W - 1st in Bronze and 15W WON GOLD! 
Congratulations to all of our teams and coaches for another impressive weekend; keep up the great work! Check out the Miami Elite News page to see how all of our teams finished. 
 
For a few minutes at each practice we spend time talking about the mental aspect of volleyball and the significant role this plays in our success. To help us along the way, we've taken the book, The Energy Bus by Jon Gordon as one of our themes and areas of focus. We are working on buliding mental toughness, overcoming adversity, choosing to set aside our personal "wants" for the betterment of the team and realizing that there's more to volleyball than just winning. No doubt, these are valuable lessons for volleyball and maybe even more important as life lessons. Help us continue this journey and follow alongside through the tab: POSITIVE PARENTING IN SPORTS. 
Our Directors and coaches continue to communicate on a weekly basis about how we can improve our entire organization. We appreciate your support as our commitment to excellence remains our priority! January Recap posted in the HANDOUTS tab.
