One of the most critical components
of any successful sports program is the coaching
staff. The Champions Volleyball Club is proud to
have some of the most successful junior
volleyball coaches in the United States on our
staff.
Our coaches are the only
Orlando-based volleyball coaches that have won a
National Junior Olympic title, and they have won
five of them at the 12U level. In addition our
coaches have a 3rd place finish at
the 14U level and 5th place finish in
the 16U level. Our expertise is specifically on
developing youth ages 9-14 into elite volleyball
players that have the potential to lead varsity
high school teams and are able to compete at the
collegiate levels, should they so
desire.
