BOARDMAN VOLLEYBALL COACH’S CORNER (EP 1) WITH ALYSSA BIRCH

/in /by

BOARDMAN OH- Boardman is building a volleyball culture inside the walls of their gymnasium. That has been the goal of head coach Alyssa Birch ever since she took the job. Building a culture starts at the bottom, and Birch has built a strong youth following at Boardman.  Because of that, her fairly young team is going to be ready to shine bright this season. The experience of being thrusted into new situations last year has put the Spartans in a position where they return more starters than most.

Coach Birch came on to YSN’s Running Point from her class room this week to give us a solid peak inside the program. She talks with Anthony Hartwig and Ty Bartell about how much experience was gained last season, some names to watch out for while watching the team this year, and so much more. Join the Spartan empire by taking the chance to preview this year’s volleyball season with Episode 1 of Coach’s Corner with Alyssa Birch.

BOARDMAN OH- Action on the volleyball court is fast approaching in the year of 2021. Just like football, volleyball practices are allowed to start on August 1st, and for most teams the season starts on the week after the 20th (Week 1 of football). Boardman’s volleyball program will look a lot different than it did in 2020. The Spartans are only returning 2 players on the varsity players from the year before. Head Coach Alyssa Birch has approached this summer with a different strategy and really is focusing on individual progress. The Spartans will immediately test their merit as they open the season Saturday August 21st at North Canton Hoover.

Coach Birch was gracious enough to take the time to call in to YSN’s Running Point this week to provide us with a preview of the 2021 volleyball season. She talked with Ron and Anthony about the game plan this summer, the growth of volleyball in the area, and much more. Spartan fans get set for volleyball season with this exclusive interview with coach Birch in Episode 1 of Coach/s Corner.

BOARDMAN OH- The Spartans have a ton of senior leadership on their team this season. Seven seniors headline a talented Spartans team. That leadership comes in handy as Boardman navigates their tough schedule. Boardman makes sure to keep themselves tested with the teams they play. One of their biggest games of the season was their five set victory of Canfield. The seniors had not beat Canfield in their high school career, and to win in such thrilling fashion was a big turning point for Boardman’s season.

Spartans head coach Alyssa Birch is gaining experience every year she puts under her belt leading the program. She also has a fantastic coaching staff helping her out. When you ask the players about coach Birch the word that shines through is care. She truly cares for her players not just on the court, but off it as well. That lets her players know she has their back. That’s why she gets the most out of them night in and night out.

Coach Birch called in to Running Point this week to catch up with YSN’s Anthony Hartwig. They discussed her programs mental toughness, her seniors and what they bring to the team, and much more. Check in with Spartans volleyball with episode 1 of Coach’s Corner with Alyssa Birch.
