Our Master Coaching System
Ensures, Cohesive Quality Training Across All Teams
Our coaching philosophy is different than any other club in the area with our Master Coaching System.
Technical Director Rosario Lopez, is responsible for the overall training protocol. He brings techniques used by the U.S. National Team, Division 1 Colleges, and the top club teams in the country and works with the team coaches to develop and implement our practice and training plan. The Master Coaching System allows all players and coaches in our club to learn a consistent set of techniques and terminologies that are used throughout the volleyball community.
Practices are designed by Coach Lopez with a specific focus on skill progression and competitive play. This philosophy allows all club members to learn a foundational set of skills from footwork, hand skills, and on-court decision-making. Players can build upon these foundational skills, enabling them to increase their proficiency quickly and potentially play on different teams throughout the club or fill in for a player that may miss a tournament. This also means that our student-athletes master skills necessary for all positions on the court, allowing players to be proficient in more than one position.
This coaching structure has proven to be efficient and effective. Each coach works closely with the master coach to provide feedback about what went well at tournaments including areas needing improvement. This interaction sets the direction for future practices.
Our Master Coaching System ensures cohesive, quality training across teams. All our athletes go through the same practice plans and get the same excellent level of training, no matter what team they are on.
Our Staff will provide your athlete a complete strength, speed, and agility program, and volleyball-specific training methodologies, in a comprehensive curriculum-based system. Additionally, club, and national level competitions will be introduced, educating, and developing our athletes to the highest levels of youth volleyball in Arizona and beyond.
