Kevin Hambly about ābeing yourselfā
In our latest Reel coach Hambly talks about one of his āfavorite failuresā.
How do we define the concept of a āfavorite failureā?
A favorite failure encourages a positive and proactive mindset toward setbacks. It highlights the importance of resilience, learning, and personal growth, ultimately contributing to a more fulfilling and successful journey.

New practice session goodness.
Weāve just launched our latest practice session on volleybrains.com
What is a practice session?
We get on a video call with a head coach and go over one or a couple of their practices.
We keep it simple. An explanation of every exercise, what the objectives are, and what alterations can be. But at the same time, we can go deeper into specific topics alsoā¦
The session launched today is with Alessandro Orefice, the head coach of Paris St. Cloud, one of Franceās top women club teams.
Go and check it out over here for 58 minutes of edited practice content.
In this short clip coach Orefice explains how he likes to start every receiver session.

Check out the highlights of the game in the clip below.
If youāve got access though and havenāt seen the full game yetā¦go and watch it.
