Our Team: Coaching Staff

A growth mindset to become your personal best

It's about you. Our Coaching Staff helping you become your personal best. Pursuing your dreams. Overcoming challenges. 


Individualize. Personalize. Compassion. Empower. 


We love to coach. Our staff is passionate about volleyball and really enjoy working with youth players. We are positive and mindful coaches teaching life lessons with teachable moments. We want our players to have a growth mindset, focus on mastery and being confident in their journey to become their personal best. We grow through effort, learning, and adjusting from our mistakes. We have the knowledge, experience, creativity, positivity, and passion to help you reach your peak.


We teach visually. Short videos, picture memes, and demonstrations. The best way to replicate is by seeing then doing. We have done a lot of back end work to make this a fun, fast, easy, and streamlined process! Our camp participants even get a personal web-based log in to have full access to these visual resources. 


Our coaches are dedicated professionals. We have led as college head coaches, college assistant coaches, and been decorated college players. Our staff has reached their peak earning national rankings, NCAA Tournament appearances, Conference Championships, Coach-of-the-Year awards, and coached numerous All-Americans and USA Olympians. 


Over 10,000 players, hundreds of high school teams, and coaches from the Aleutian Islands in Alaska; throughout the continental US including California, Nevada, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, to Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, and Florida; and even St. Thomas and St. Croix, US Virgin Islands have been a part of sharing amazing volleyball experiences with Peak Volleyball Camps since 2007, Team Retreat Camps since 1996, VBcamps since 1991, and Satellite Volleyball Camp experiences. We have been privileged to share these memorable moments with such a wonderful and diverse volleyball community
