I'm pretty short and fairly good at volleyball, but my coach won't give me a shot. I've dropped lots hints. How do I convince her?

First, demonstrate your ability in practice. If you've got it, you have to show it. Then be direct, and ask your coach to put you in.

I would say you will have to earn your spot by working the very hardest in practice. In the off season, work hard on conditioning, Skills, and quickness. If your short, fucus extra efforts on passing/defense. DS or Libero. Good luck

I think your best bet is to be up front and ask her if you can at least show her what you can do in practice and maybe she will give you a chance in the game. Otherwise right a note to her and let her know how you feel.

ATTITUDE!!!! ALWAYS HAVE A GOOD ATTITUDE!!!! My coach will play everyone who has a good attitude except during really important games. ALWAYS HUSTLE DURING PRACTICE!!!!! run for the ball. Coaches LOVE that and that's one of the biggest things. CONCENTRATE!!!!focus and show her how dedicated you are!!!! HELP OUT!!!not suck-up help-out but just considerate. CHEER FOR YOUR TEAMMATES!!!
I think this will really help!! :]]
