New Pocari coach adjusting to non-military style

MANILA, Philippines — Newly minted head  Pocari Sweat Lady Warriors coach Rico de Guzman said he is still adjusting to his new role.

"Ako pa munang nag-aadjust ngayon, unti-unti lang muna. Sa susunod maaadapt nila yung pagiging military," De Guzman said after his team beat the UP Lady Fighting Maroons, 21-25, 25-20, 25-18, 25-21, in the 2017 Premier Volleyball League Open Conference Tuesday.

The Pocari Sweat Lady Warriors, who won three titles in two years, have a new coach in Rico de Guzman
De Guzman, who steered the Philippine Army Lady Troopers to multiple crowns, added that the biggest difference between coaching a civilian and a military squad is the discipline.

"Yung sa military, talagang military yan eh, andyan yung discipline. Lahat ng igagalaw pang military talaga," De Guzman said.

"[Sa Army] Pag nag-bigay ka ng time, andun sa eksaktong time, itong mga civilian hindi natin maoobliga," he added.

He assumed the position after three-time champion head coach Rommel Abella was promoted as the team's director for player development.
