Abstract

This study explores effective coaching strategies, techniques, and team dynamics essential for achieving success in volleyball. Conducted with all 32 student-athletes from a private university in Batangas, Philippines, this research utilizes qualitative exploratory methods and thematic analysis to uncover insights into coaching effectiveness and team cohesion. The total number of participants reflects the entire population of student-athletes at the university, ensuring comprehensive representation. Key findings highlight the significance of personalized training programs tailored to individual needs, detailed performance feedback, innovative skill development drills, and strategic game simulations. Effective team dynamics, including strong communication, mutual trust, and resilience, are crucial for maintaining high performance and navigating competitive challenges. The study also identifies challenges in coaching, such as conflict resolution and role  balancing. Recommendations include implementing tailored training plans, providing regular feedback, using innovative techniques, and fostering a supportive team environment. Future research may investigate the long-term effects of personalized training on player development across various competition levels.
