Living Rock Academy

Coaching Qualities: I want my athletes to have the mindset to persevere through tough games and practices but also be humble enough to help those that may be struggling. Trust is a huge aspect in building a great team and athlete: you need to trust your teammates but more importantly, trust yourself. The mental game in volleyball is JUST as important as the physical and with the right mindset anything is possible! I want my athletes to know that they can do whatever they set their mind to on and off the court. Expectations: I expect my athletes to give it their all in whatever they're doing whether it be a practice, game, private or group workout. If you aren't giving it all that you have, then there no point in doing it at all. The biggest expectation I have is that I expect my kids to be good teammates and lift each other up when things get hard. This not only builds trust between teammates, but it teaches these young women how to uplift others in the world. I am in the profession to not just make great athletes, but great people. Coaching Motto: Empty your tank. Every day you go through before you get to practice, may take a little more out of your tank. You go to school, do homework etc., then you get to practice, and you may have 80% left in your tank. I want 100% of whatever you have left in your tank when you step on my court.
