Lexie A.

I'd been volleyball captain since 2012, coaching my own team in drills and practices throughout the season and off-season. Although, I started privately coaching 5 years ago. I've worked with kids aged from 5-16, not including my fellow teammates. Privately coaching, I had cliental by word of mouth, but I played volleyball as captain with numerous organizations around both Las Vegas and California.

I've been playing volleyball since the age of 5, never having an off season. I've obtained numerous first place trophies while playing within a club team. I've been awarded best offense and defense player within different seasons of playing. I'd captained my team for 5 years straight, with 4 consecutive 1st place wins. I sustained an injury that prevented me from moving forward within my college career, but that didn't stop me. I continue to train not only myself, but others who want the opportunity to play professionally one day.

I would start all sessions with the proper stretches and conditioning, to help prevent strains or injuries. Once that is completed, I always jump into "peppering" as a warm up. I'm able to get a sense of their control & typically strengths/weaknesses. After we spend a few minutes of peppering, we'll begin drills that vary day to day. The drills span from blocking, hitting, passing, serving and setting. Depending on the athletes abilities and knowledge of the sport will determine what specific drills will be utilized. I also organize scrimmage games, to practice team work and communication.
