A message from Coach Audra:
I have thoroughly enjoyed playing volleyball growing up and have always aspired to be a volleyball coach from a young age. The love of the game and having an ‘athlete mentality’ is what I have passion for and dedicate myself to share with the athletes that play for me. As a coach, I plan to instill character, competiveness, dedication, perseverance, mental toughness and a hard work ethic in your daughter. I believe sport is a great experience to have growing up. Even if the athlete does not continue playing after high school & club, I hope they enjoy their high school & club playing experience and learn valuable life lessons. My advice to young players is to work hard EVERYDAY, strive to be a good teammate and a coachable player. Oh yes, and most importantly….enjoy playing the great game of volleyball!
