Viacheslav Platonov (Russian: Вячеслав Платонов; 21 January 1939 – 26 December 2005) was a Russian volleyball player and coach.
Victories come when their time comes. Often later than you wish. Patience is an essential quality of a coach's profession.
For the players to put their minds and vigour into the game is not enough for victory. They must also put in their souls. The team that gives up to the game all its strengths and puts into it its mind and soul cannot leave the court defeated.
Demonstration of individual talent involves originality and it is easy to destroy natural talent.
In my opinion the teaching of volleyball technique,. . . , must always be correlated with tactical tasks.
Only those who do not work do not make mistakes.
