He&#8217;s also leading a coaching clinic<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While the eyes of the world are on Brazil this month as the World Cup unfolds, the eyes of Brazil will be taking more than a passing glance at what will transpire here on Oahu July 11 and 12.<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n<p>For soccer may be the undisputed king of Brazil, but sitting at its right hand is volleyball, the second most popular sport in the country. Even Brazil&#8217;s national stadium for volleyball, Maracan&atilde;zinho, resides next door to its soccer stadium, Maracan&atilde;, and its name literally means &#8216;little Maracan&atilde;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>What is not little about Brazilian volleyball is its medal count, as the men&#8217;s team won gold in 2004 in Athens and silver in the past two Olympics, and the women took home the gold in 2008 and 2012, both times prevailing over the team from the United States.<\/p>\n<p>Brazil hopes to continue this success at home as it plays host to the Olympics in 2016, but first the Hawaiian Islands will play host to Brazil as its world No. 1 national women&#8217;s team comes to face off against the U.S. team featuring Kalani grad Tamari Miyashiro in two matches at Stan Sheriff Center.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Brazil has a fantastic team, but we did a lot of things right the last 12 months leading up to London,&#8221; says new USA head coach Karch Kiraly, who was an assistant on the 2012 Olympic team.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We beat Brazil five or six times leading into the Olympics, but they put together a great match in the gold medal final. So they beat us one out of the last six or seven &mdash; we had the advantage much of the previous 365 days, but just couldn&#8217;t close the deal.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So Brazil has tremendous men&#8217;s and women&#8217;s programs, both indoor and beach, and volleyball is a hugely popular sport down there. It is the sport that they have the best chance to win Olympic team medals in, and they win a lot of them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t let his effusive praise for the Brazilians fool you, though. Kiraly is a winner and plans to turn the U.S. women into winners, as well. If you&#8217;re unfamiliar with Kiraly, then you are unfamiliar with volleyball. He is the Michael Jordan of his sport, only with more victories at every level.<\/p>\n<p>At UCLA, he led his team to three national championships. He then spiked his way to Olympic gold in 1984 and &#8217;88 in indoor volleyball. And just to prove his versatility, he won gold in 1996 in sand volleyball. He finished his career with 148 professional beach volleyball titles &mdash; the most ever &mdash; and was named by volleyball governing body FIVB as the greatest volleyball player of the 20th century.<\/p>\n<p>Being the best ever on the court, though, does not always translate to success on the bench.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am fighting the stereotype and the norm. Lots of people who have had success on the athletic field struggle to find success as a coach. It requires a different set of skills,&#8221; says Kiraly, whose first gold medal came with a victory over Brazil in the final.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When a game comes so easily to some, you kind of reach from an interior level, so the easy trap to fall into is, &#8216;Well, this is easy, how come you don&#8217;t get it?&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well, it is not easy; it is a really, really difficult game to play well and at a very high level. I try to stay aware of that, and most of all to be what we demand of our athletes, which is to be learners. To have a growth mindset &mdash; to be better today than we were yesterday and to be better tomorrow than we were today. I was a learner as an athlete, and I hope to always be a learner as a coach.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He attributes his successful transformation from player to coach to his two boys Kristian and Kory, for helping him learn the skills necessary to translate his greatness in the game to teaching others the sport.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Coaching them in high school was a good thing for me as a developing coach because I didn&#8217;t start by coaching really high-level athletes. I started coaching high school players, including complete beginners,&#8221; says Kiraly, whose boys followed his lead in attending UCLA, but not onto the court. After high school, they only play the sport for fun. &#8220;It was a great way to make sure I didn&#8217;t assume anything, and how to teach people the basics.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He will impart what he has learned with a free two-hour coaching clinic July 11 before the first match against Brazil.<\/p>\n<p>Registration for the clinic is open to all volleyball coaches in the Islands, but only the first 200 applicants will get to attend. Registration can be done by texting &#8220;USAVCUP&#8221; to 22828 to get started.<\/p>\n<p>Usually, at a clinic like this, he will have the coaches just watch one of his training sessions, but because of the tight schedule the U.S. team will be on, he instead will talk about how to cover the basics, the importance of not just teaching players to be learners, but also to be learners as coaches, and finally, embracing the challenge of learning.<\/p>\n<p>This learning has to be done in a shorter window for his U.S. women, as they are forced to play abroad once their collegiate career is over.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The United States is the only top country in the world without a professional league, so all of our athletes have to leave their own country to play all over the world, (places) like China, Turkey and Russia,&#8221; says Kiraly, who also is an announcer for ESPN during the NCAA national championships. &#8220;So every fall and winter our athletes have to leave for a good seven months to play professionally.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kiraly see this as an edge for the Brazilians because of their professional league at home.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They do have a couple advantages to help them out,&#8221; admits Kiraly. &#8220;With a league at home, they can get coached in more similar philosophy to what they get coached for their national team. And they also have a lot of continuity, as they have had the same coach now for three Olympic cycles.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The only way to combat this is to grow the sport in U.S., and he thinks there is much to be gleaned from our fervor for it here in the Islands.<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_1_placeholder\n<p>&#8220;We need to study places like Hawaii and Nebraska and learn,&#8221; says Kiraly, speaking of the two hottest places in the U.S. for volleyball. &#8220;Doing lots of clinics and free things to get kids involved in the game, like we are doing with this clinic, will help. The teams give a lot back to the community, and the community appreciates it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The two teams play a pair of games in California, one at UC-Irvine and one at USC, before heading over here for a two-match set. Kiraly believes the two games here, with our raucous crowds and knowledgeable fans, will be a great way to simulate what they will experience in 2016 in Rio.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are excited to get to play in one of the most volleyball-passionate and savvy places in the nation, if not in the world,&#8221; says Kiraly. &#8220;Hawaii loves their volleyball; they know so much about the game. I think there will be a lot for them to appreciate as we bring world No. 2 USA against world No. 1 Brazil.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If the event is a success, they hope to bring out the men&#8217;s team next year and hopefully turn it into an annual contest.<\/p>\n<p>This will be a unique chance for the people of Hawaii to see the two best squads in the world, and a preview of the expected Olympic final in 24 months.<\/p>\n<p>While he will enjoy having these matches on American soil, the thought of taking back the gold on Brazil&#8217;s home court makes it all the sweeter for Kiraly.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think it is great that the next Olympics are going to be in Brazil. It will be the best volleyball Olympics ever because volleyball is held in such high regard and followed with such passion there,&#8221; says Kiraly.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I wouldn&#8217;t have it any other way. I love the fact that they have a lot going for them, and we relish the adversity and challenge of what any team faces &mdash; first of all, qualifying, and second of all, knowing if one aspires, as we do, to win an Olympic Games, that we will have to go through the Brazilians on their home court. I can&#8217;t imagine a better place to do that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><em>Tickets are available at the UH ticket office or go to <a href=\"https:\/\/hawaiiathletics.com\">hawaiiathletics.com<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/eTicketHawaii.com\">eTicketHawaii.com<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former Olympic champion Karch Kiraly leads the No. 2-ranked U.S. women&#8217;s national team against No. 1 Brazil in matches at..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":37,"featured_media":40064,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[47],"tags":[7025,7026,8180,8181,7024],"class_list":["post-40041","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cover-story","tag-brazilian-volleyball","tag-coach-karch","tag-karch-kiraly","tag-olympic-champion","tag-volleyball-olympics"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>USA Coach Karch Kiraly - Brazilian volleyball - MidWeek<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Former Olympic champion Karch Kiraly leads the No. 2-ranked U.S. women&#039;s national team against No. 1 Brazil in matches at Stan Sheriff Center July 11-12.
