First Tournament Together | Volleyball Vlog

[@ShieldHero1]

Hey Coach, I don't normally comment but as a long time viewer, I've really been liking the new style of videos! This video especially feels so action packed that I had to comment before even finishing!

[@marianopatino939]

Well with his new editor, things are going to be better. Really proud how far he has come.

[@IvanTheUnholy]

That editor is worth his weight in gold. Your already amazing content has elevated (haha) even more.

[@moose6330]

Im pretty sure coach donny edits his own videos

[@demon2438]

@@moose6330 Were you not updated lol

[@moose6330]

I wasn't aware he got an editor my bad

[@quatrobajeena2660]

the pun bro ಥ‿ಥ

[@Gotothelui]

It just looked like you guys were playing at such a good level today. Especially the Setter, dunno his name but he's great. He also seems to really trust the Spiking Viking a lot as well, setting to him super often

[@PedroMiguel-zv3fj]

He's the team's ace hahaha

[@derpolcu]

Yeah the setter was doing some fantastic work

[@heath6825]

Great team! The setter is definitely very skilled, awesome back set at 11:26 to Donny!

[@MegaNarutoFox]

10:47 - Very nice to see so much joy coming from both teams from a funny spike-block exchange!

[@Golden_PJ]

The quality of this vlog looks super professional!

[@haikyuufanstrytoplayvolley3056]

Let’s go coach Donny!! Can’t wait to see the results of the training you and your team have been putting through!!!

[@guilhermerodrigues1145]

That setter is insanely good, my goodness! Awesome video, coach.

[@lowestfrequency]

I'm a 47 year old father of three with a bilateral hip replacement. I started playing some rec volleyball a few years ago for fun. Now I'm starting to get frustrated that I'm just not as good as I'd like to be. Watching these videos has improved my knowledge of the game and some of the techniques I need to work on. This is how sports SHOULD be - competitive but with a focus on fun and energy.

[@SickLiq]

I really enjoy the extra content with these - the traveling, the traditions, between sets, etc. I watched one where you guys went out to eat and you had some stuff in the hotel. Really adds to the experience more than just some cuts of volleyball.

[@advice2490]

WOOOOOOOOOO LET'S GO COACH! It was a great video with some hype plays, the line shot at 11:00 and your block into a dive receive at 11:08 were my two favorite plays of the video!

[@sonicff7]

the quality on this is POPPIN

[@OnchiBon]

It seems like the energy in this gym was so positive like you can tell everyone was there to have fun while still competing with each other. Lots of really strong plays and a sense of respect for the opponents that's really nice and refreshing to see. Huge props to the guy that called his own touch Random side note: I really really like the setter's hair color lol

[@ellacaluracalura1633]

First few seconds and the quality looks hella dopeee!!

[@gianlu6863]

This Is one of those videos that I gladly watch in 1080p video-quality. Great content!

[@raphaelsantos6183]

it's great to see you guys play!! always with good moves... Shout-out from Brazil 🇧🇷

[@evanluma4644]

What’s up Coach, your videos in the past helped me so much. Thanks for everything, also your team killed it!

[@MadeByIsmael]

Seeing you guys play always makes me smile

[@kay8108]

Been loving you for like 2 years, Coach. But with this cute editor it's just like double the love

[@huemungy3212]

Some of those rallies were insane! Keep up the conditioning can't wait to see you at peak performance. Chris is an absolute BEAST

[@bittersweeter5882]

The vlogs are literally my favorite videos you post they're so interesting!

[@Poyvaldez2]

Wow! Amazing. I hope i can play there. 😊❤️

[@sasacena-barruela3709]

I saw the matches in your videos a month ago and it’s nice that there’s a separate vlog for this. Cause when I was watching your previous videos, it felt like the hitters from the wings (especially the other outside hitter beside Coach Donny and Chris), I don’t know his name but kind of lacked some juice at the end but who can blame him? This was a very tough tournament. One whole day of playing. That’s gonna wear you out. But always such a joy to watch you guys play.

[@Khan-genghis2]

Thanks for the vid, I’ve learned a lot from you’re commentary videos and enjoy your Haikyu videos. keep it up Donny. 🏐

[@braydenerker4540]

The editor is doing a really good job, camera quality is amazing, this is non stop entertainment.

[@kevinsom8713]

The background music added to the cuts is such a nice touch. Really nice editing.

[@NoClueBurns]

First time commenting, long time viewer. Just wanted to say watching these sorts of videos are super inspiring! I don't play any sport but Volleyball has always been a sport I've been interested in. Hopefully one day I can play it somewhere and put your videos to good use.

[@saureld2448]

Awesome video! Love the blog style ! Y’all are our celebrities :)

[@Crystantemum]

Great compilation of past moments I remember watching that came together incredibly! Amazing editing to the new guy(or girl) and as always, amazing words of wisdom and honesty from Coach. Can't wait for future vids on the teams progress

[@Futuro_]

This editor elevated the videos to another level! Keep it up coach Donny and editor!

[@sushihoshi]

Saw what you did there 😭😭

[@ivao2984]

I’m so happy for you 😭 you’ll crush them all

[@Noakid2013]

Samoan Cheeehoooo love your energy and vibes appreciate your presence

[@jonieevangelista]

that was a lot of game in a day...you did great!

[@pierre220199]

11:09 Coach did like Hinata vs wakunan, block then save the ball👌

[@andrewdrake3398]

Wow... What amazing games. Well done

[@bojtordavid5693]

Good to see that the team still have the no free balls mentality😤

[@segatasanshiro21]

Love your tournament vlogs. Missing the USAV nationals.

[@homemadebiology5218]

Shout out to the new editor! You’re doing great and I’m loving the new video style! Also it really shows that coach Donny just loves good volleyball, Bc he shows his opponents highlights as well as his own😂

[@Lumiere20]

Your setter is so good

[@richardl.5054]

Random notes... * Appreciated your comments about pre-vball nutrition. One of my personal faves is a "McDonny" iced coffee for the caffeine and sugar. * That said, I cringed at the McGriddle. I've had one ever; that was too many for me. :) I was genuinely afraid that you were going to eat it at the end of the day - pls say you didn't? * Love one-armed stab digs like 5:40 and 11:35, even though people assume you just got lucky. (I practice them during pepper, and it pays off.) * The energy and also the sportsmanship (e.g., 6:51) are just a few of the reasons that vball is such a great and truly team sport. Thanks for this tournament vlog - looking forward to future match videos, plus a team intro when your roster is finalized!

[@Lemon14402]

Awesome!

[@chicksuh9412]

11:22 That Setter is Insane!

[@xboxana4394]

New setter is clean :D

[@shamoocaden]

Nice editing in the beginning

[@seijisakamoto5958]

Hi Coach, long time view here and I just want to give a big shoutout to the new editor. The new style of the video is amazing. I am just wondering that If you could make an introduction video for the team just to make the team more relatable for us. Thanks!!!

[@bobross4098]

Great video

[@maverickg2869]

Gotta establish the middle to keep the offense unpredictable. You'll get them next one coach.

[@masianish]

ufi a real one !!

[@ctv_orange5766]

great setter man

[@jeffmartin2675]

The dude at 10:42 .... all of us volleyball players felt that pain with the block and headshot. Always good to laugh it off

[@jissinksh6603]

So amazing highlight

[@hyperjet7459]

I love these vlogs!

[@kikden02]

You must say "hey hey heeey!!" now, when u hit a hard ball

[@gautamkalura6901]

man i really wish i could play in that tournament too

[@aguayofav2911]

Chris comes to my town?? small world wow

[@aguayofav2911]

this was beautiful content

[@johnnoah2244]

Bro the top scorers on this team are both left handed cannons. They just spike the ball from anywhere on the court it’s insane

[@kas349]

Lets GOOOOO new video with smooth editing:D

[@johndavidrogers9424]

Lmao that bounce perfectly in the background at 8:09

[@oohwha]

Many times "light headed" or "foggy brain" will be the result of a slight breakdown in the electron transport chain - usually an electrolyte balance that favors slightly too high a ratio of potassium in the cells versus sodium outside the cells, in the blood stream. It tracks that a whole food breakfast would leave your lower on sodium a few hours later. Hard exercise combined with lower insulin levels (as your whole foods won't boost insulin like McDonald's food with all the added sugars) will lead to a diuretic effect, greater loss of free water and sodium. With the high levels of sodium and sugar in most fast food options, I suppose they would be a longer form of electrolyte balance. For what it's worth, I bet if you add some electrolyte powder to water and chug that all morning after your healthy oats/yams/whatever... you'll find the foggy/light head issues are no more 🙂 Just something I learned from a lot of fasting and study of nutrition. Hope it helps 😀

[@darkiefahie3021]

Hey coach Donny when is the best age to start volleyball.I really want to start but im kinda short but i have all the atributes of a setter,outside,and a middle blocker so i want to know what position should i pick

[@Alwayz114]

Loving the editing! one small gripe is that the music is much, much louder than the speech. If that could be balanced a bit tighter that'd be great. Other than that, great video!

[@macnom764]

There are the videos we want alot of volleyball and alır of talkinggg

[@IVVON]

Should call these the "VollyVlogs"

[@volleyballvideos6426]

10:42 You should make a short with this point. lol

[@eruptelliot3535]

This is an amazing video

[@theempoleon78]

Coach, what do you think about Beach Volleyball for training? Is it a good idea?

[@horiama133]

Been waiting for this one :D

[@KENNECTED1]

In regard to traditions. You usually do a "weight loss" ritual. lol lol tee hee hee Also, have we had a formal introduction of each player / new player? It's so weird to see Clay on the other side of the net. Miss seeing Jason and Josh. Looking forward to getting to know the new team members.

Hey coach, how many inches do you think someone can gain with your bodyweight program?

[@winstonwu4622]

hey coach how do you find out about these tournaments and is it possible to sign up for these tournaments as a free agent?

[@SamyD23]

Is it common to play that many matches in a day? I’ve only played in a low level league where we play one best of 5 every week or two. Also we’re they best of 3 or 5?

[@bearsgamer3609]

Just some questions. What is your vertical and how tall are you?

[@procuraporz]

Any preference on shoes to play volley?

[@Jinta_Hungyu]

Yo what shoes did you wear for the tournament???

[@pauljonathansoriano5643]

Hey coach Donny, I need advise. I'm grade 10 right now and I want to play volleyball. I have been practicing by myself for around 3 months now. I don't have money to go to clubs. I was thinking of joining volleyball on grade 11 but is that not too late?

[@theiridocyclitisguy3412]

It's never too late, I know guys who started in 11th and still play and coach now

[@Gotothelui]

Coach said he started Volleyball when he was 16. If your in 10th grade then your 15 or maybe 16 as well. So the answer is no

[@henriquegiacomin5014]

Great Video :)

[@ChurryHN]

so gassed when I saw the noti!

[@tristansurajbali6421]

did you guys play against josh again?

[@yungjoshx]

Coach, I'm not sure what camera you're recording with but I recommend recording at 60 fps. It's much better for sports.

Coach, u drive prius??
