Bookroo's summary

Allie adores volleyball but struggles with hitting, doubting her skills with every mistake. Desperate to improve, she turns to her idol, Nikki, for guidance. With Nikki's coaching, Allie must master the spike to transform into a key player. Will she overcome her self-doubt and rise to the challenge, or will her fears hold her back from greatness?

From the publisher

Allie loves everything about volleyball except hitting. She doesn’t think she’s good at it, and every time she messes up, her belief in her own abilities dwindles. Finally, she asks for help. Her idol, Nikki, agrees to coach her once a week. If Allie can learn to spike as well as she blocks, she could become one of the team’s strongest players.
