1. Embrace the Volleyball Culture

One of the first steps to becoming a volleyball mom extraordinaire is immersing yourself in the volleyball culture. Attend matches, read about the sport, and familiarize yourself with its rules.

3. Pack the Essentials

When it comes to game days, being prepared is key. Pack a bag with essentials such as water bottles, snacks, extra clothes, towels, sunscreen, and any necessary medication. Don't forget to include extra hair ties, bobby pins, and a first aid kit for any minor injuries that may occur during the game.

4. Dress Comfortably

Attending volleyball matches can sometimes mean sitting for long hours on hard bleachers. Dress comfortably to ensure you are ready for the duration of the game. Opt for breathable fabrics, cushioned shoes, and layers to accommodate changing temperatures in the gym.

5. Support the Team

Being a volleyball mom means cheering not only for your child but for the entire team. Encourage a positive team spirit by attending all matches, bringing signs or banners, and getting to know other parents. A supportive and welcoming atmosphere can greatly enhance the experience for both players and spectators.

6. Communicate with the Coach

Establishing open communication with your child's coach is essential. Stay informed about the team's goals, practice schedules, and any additional requirements. Discuss any concerns or questions you may have with the coach to ensure everyone is on the same page when it comes to supporting your athlete.

7. Take Care of Yourself

While supporting your athlete is crucial, taking care of yourself is equally important. Make time for self-care activities, engage in hobbies, and lean on fellow volleyball moms for support and camaraderie. Remember, a happy and balanced mom makes for an even better volleyball cheerleader!

8. Capture the Memories

Don't forget to document your volleyball journey. Take plenty of photos and videos of games, practices, and team bonding moments. These memories will be cherished for years to come and serve as a reminder of your unwavering support for your child's passion.

9. Celebrate the Achievements

As a volleyball mom, celebrate the achievements of not only your child but also the entire team. Organize small celebrations, gift personalized mementos, or plan end-of-season parties to recognize their hard work and dedication. These gestures will cultivate a sense of camaraderie and motivate everyone to keep striving for success.

10. Enjoy the Journey

Above all, enjoy the journey. Becoming a volleyball mom is a unique experience that offers countless opportunities for personal growth and connection. Embrace the ups and downs, celebrate the victories, and savor every moment spent supporting your athlete.

This survival guide is written for a single purpose: to help both you and your daughter be victorious on and off the volleyball court. The tips and suggestions, varying from the practical to the emotional--safety, nutrition, sports equipment, team drama, mental toughness, dealing with dad--will help you get the most from your daughter's volleyball playing experience. And that will help your daughter get the most out of her volleyball experience. The two are closely tied together.

Just one note: This book is based on my first two eBooks, The Softball Mom’s Survival Guide and The Football Mom’s Survival Guide, and was specialized for the sport of volleyball. Although there are some issues that cross over all three sports, I’ve covered several that are unique to the sport of volleyball.
