Our Coaches
Top level coaching and training will be provided by our experienced coaches. Our entire coaching staff has been trained and certified by the USA Volleyball Coaching Accreditation Program (CAP) at various levels, and through the Increased Mastery and Professional Application of Coaching Theory (IMPACT) and Safe Sport courses.
In addition, these coaches bring many years of college and high school coaching experience, enhanced by the fact that most are past and current collegiate or current Yankee (adult level volleyball in New England) volleyball players themselves.
All coaches have had mandatory background checks (CORI) to comply with USA Volleyball National rules.
