Team South Wales Achieves Promotion to NVL Division 1 (2011/12) | Probably Due to My Motivational Video

I am happy to report that Team South Wales (TSW) won both of their matches in the play offs finals on Saturday and thus achieved promotion to Division 1.  They played against Leeds (the bottom ranked team in NVL Division 1) and Herts VC (2nd ranked team in NVL Division 2 North).  After losing the first set in the first match against Leeds, they won the next 6 sets to win both matches.  Of the two teams, Herts were the much better team (including #12 from Americas team that made my All-Star All Nations 2011 Women’s Team – see link) and the 3-0 win perhaps doesn’t reflect the quality of their team.  But only one team can progress and I’m glad it was us.  

I created my first motivational video for them and it was a bit of a rushed job (24 hours and I didn’t finish it with a inspirational message).  TSW’s success may have been down to Coach Castro and the players’ hard work but I like to think it was this motivational video that made the critical difference that day.  Below is the video itself:
