The results of analysis of mistakes made during the team building process are provided below. This case study was conducted in 1998 on the team building processes of a NK women’s volleyball team at a junior college.
1) A very important aspect in the team building process is to acquire certain types of players. Lacking a player with strong leadersnip skills in the senior year of a two-year college causes grave concern on team balance
2) If a member of a team acts selfishly without thinking about the other members of the team, it is very important for the coach to correct her acts by letting each member of the team know their allocated role.
3) Accidental injuries in off court activities obviously influence the team building processes on court. Conscientious effort is needed to remind the members of their responsibility to the team’s well being.
4) Only accumulation of the victory experience can nurture a sense of confidence in the minds of team members. Even in a practice game one can learn much about winning.
5) When there are more first year students than second year students on a team the older students might feel too much pressure to solve team building related issues. The head coach should display strong leadership in such a case.
6) It is only natural for the head coach to have high expectations for the players but when executing team building plans he must be flexible so that the plans become achievable.
7) While it is important to teach skills to win it is also important to emphasize the mental aspects of the game.
Further observation and the collection of data from more examples in team building efforts done in various volleyball team building are needed.
