“The premiere skill is the ability to see and read the game.”
- Hugh McCutcheon, USA Women’s Olympic Coach, 2008 Olympics.

What is VolleySim?
VolleySim is a virtual training product for Volleyball Players and Coaches in order to visualize specific decision making aspects of the game of volleyball. Our top priority is to ensure the accuracy of a training simulation to empower motivated athletes the ability to train no matter where they are. VolleySim will train athletes to reach their potential and increase their level of play. Many players want extra practices, more coaching, and more help to improve, but at a point, the body must rest. VolleySim is designed to allow those athletes who crave more knowledge and more practice a way to practice reading the game, anytime, anywhere.

What is reading the game?
Reading the game is the ability for you to see what is happening with the other team in terms of both court position and body position in order to anticipate a most likely course of action. This anticipation will allow you to move yourself and your body in the correct position prior to the ball even starting to move to your side of the court.

“Learn to anticipate, read the before and at contact actions, and remember the flow and tendencies under stress of opponents....and do it at the right place and time, the better we all will be.”
–John Kessel (USA Volleyball’s Director of Sport Development, coaching since 1971 at the collegiate level or above, including Women’s U.S. Open titles in 1986 & 87. A sought after international lecturer, he has conducted 1-2 week seminars in all 50 states, and in over 30 Nations; In 1995, Volleyball Magazine’s special Centennial issue named him one of the 50 most important people in the sport in the past 100 years.)

Pros and cons of VolleySim: Visualize the Game app for iPhone and iPad

VolleySim: Visualize the Game app good for

One of the best volleyball training apps that actually "puts" you in the game. I wish they would make one that worked on blocking and running offenses too, or just have both in the same app. You should also have the option to choose perimeter defense or middle up defense. Movement could be a bit smoother - On hard mode movement is too slow, making it almost impossible to reach tips on time. Basically, controls are pretty hard. The only thing that annoys me is that you cant get rid of ads.
Great app! But I wish they could add hitting/blocking and also a middle blocker :))

Some bad moments

game should continue with the play but over all its really good

Does this deserve one star? Maybe. Does it deserve four stars? Maybe. I would never know. Every time I start it up it either freezes on a white screen and becomes unresponsive or I will "start" a defense drill but once the screen loads, the whole thing crashes. I have tried several times but to no avail it keeps freezing or crashing at the same spot before I can even play. So I would never know what this deserves but so far, if it wont let me play then thats all there is to it.
Its really cool on how similar the app is to real volleyball, but it needs to have offense, blocking, and setting to make it even more realistic.
This game is fun and really helps me read the attacker. But can there please be something to help with hitting
This is not very accurate and doesnt help at all with physical skills and actual volleyball. I would know from experience of playing real volleyball.
