A message from Coach Stacia:
Coaching youth volleyball allows me to combine my greatest passions in life--teaching and competitive sport! As a career science teacher, I really enjoy being able to teach the why and how of the game of volleyball (it's really just physics!). I strive to help my players better understand the game, not just from the perspective of skill, but the big picture of why we do things on the court the way we do them. I am so excited to share my love and passion for the game with my players this year.
