Nikki has been the best coach for my daughter. Not only has she helped her improve and grow as a player, Nikki shows that she believes in my daughter, and is very supportive. She provides a positive environment that has resulted in high team morale. What I love most about Coach Nikki is that she is constantly coaching; every player, every play, during both practices and games.

Coach Hayek is a great coach. She considers all players personality and motivations to help them best succeed within the team dynamics. She is easy to work with (from a parents perspective) she cares about the kids and the team.

Coach Nikki is a great coach. She is very knowledgeable about volleyball and how to coach it. My daughter grew so much over this past season. I love her encouragement toward the players.

As many have said previous Heather is fantastically organized and trying to grow the club as she enters her 5th year. She is really great towards her favorites and will not pull them out for anything beyond 5-10 errors in a row. Newer players get yanked after 1 mistake. She does not foster a fun and energetic team atmosphere- it’s almost icy and players play afraid vs loose and fun and confident. She will roll the same favorites out there in the lineup and refuse to change or trust new players to get better and possibly outperform her favorites. So what happens is predictable and the same tournament over tournament. Until Heather releases her favoritism and demeanor then the club will stagnate as she insists on coaching the top clubs.

Coach Destiny helped me get better at volleyball a lot. She was patient and always explained things in a way I could understand. She pushed me to try harder but also made practice fun. She always said positive things. Anybody who had a bad experience with her clearly showed they didn't want to get better because she was overly nice and always pushed everyone to get better.

We’ve had our girls in club volleyball for four years across three different clubs, playing everything from club prep/metro to national Liberty level teams, and Tiffany has been the very best coach we’ve experienced. We first noticed her at a club prep tryout. While others were simply watching, she was actively coaching and teaching technique. That stood out immediately, and we’re so thankful we’ve had her as our coach. With her high-level experience, she brought that same structure, strategy, and excellence to our club prep team. She teaches strong fundamentals and balances competitive play with giving every athlete meaningful court time. She meets each player where they are, challenges them to grow, and creates a positive, respectful environment. We would absolutely love to have her as our coach again.

Team building is one of his main focuses. The girls do team lunches whether they win or lose tournaments. He does drills focusing on the mental side of the game and incorporates the physical side. He will get onto the girls and is very animated, but gives out compliments equally. Best coach in 4 years of playing.

I expected my daughter's first year of club volleyball to be a wonderful developmental year for her. Boy was I wrong. This coach selected girls for positions in August and kept them there hindering their growth. Instead of developing all volleyball skills across the board for all players, she shoehorned them into positions and only had front row work on hitting, back row on passing, etc.. At 9 and 10 year old, these girls should be learning how to do it all since you don't know how tall they will be later in life, which can greatly impact what position they will play. Practice drills were basically the same in April as they were in August. There was no progression in the drills to continue to raise their skills. This coach watches where the ball goes vs ensuring the girls have proper form and technique. An absolute disservice to the girls especially at this age. Not only that, my daughter's confidence is in the gutter. She's constantly told she can't do things, gets subbed out after one mistake while watching teammates make 5+ errors in a row without getting pulled in games. I don't even care if my daughter plays because playing time is earned in club, this complaint isn't that. I know volleyball and club. So if you want your daughter to not be taught the basics and fundamentals of volleyball and enjoy coaches who make snarky and passive aggressive comments to the girls to tank their spirit and confidence, this club and coach may be for you.

Destiny is incredibly negative. She tells us we are embarrassing if we do not play well. She also tells us we are just going to forfeit the rest of our games since we don't deserve to play. She will scream at us while we are playing and many of us will cry. It just isn't fun at all.

Brauzon is a strong coach, though right after the team qualified in Open, much of his focus moved toward recruiting for the next season, and he will not attend Nationals with the team in June.
