* 7th Grade boys volleyball coach

I am a dedicated and energetic individual who guides young athletes through the fundamentals of volleyball while fostering teamwork, discipline, and a love for the game. I am  responsible for planning and leading practices, teaching proper technique, and helping players understand game strategy. With a focus on development over competition, I encourage each player’s growth regardless of skill level.

I am patient, supportive, and able to communicate clearly with middle school students. They serve as a role model both on and off the court, promoting good sportsmanship, respect, and a positive attitude. Additionally, I work closely with school staff, parents, and  other coaches to coordinate games, track progress, and ensure a safe, inclusive environment for all players.
