More About Coach Mark

I have 8 years coaching experience and training athletes, with ages ranging from 7-55+. Spending most of my time as Head Coach for High School, club U16 and Collegian club teams. I have given private lessons, run camps and clinics, such as Gold Medalist Pat Powers vbclinics. I am NFHS, usav certified and an active member of CEVA as a, AA player

In High School(8A) I was on Varsity 3 years, earning MVP twice, along with Male Athlete Scholarship my senior year. Still holding school records for most kills, points and kill %. I made ALL Conference- SICA Blue and All State- IL(Volleyball & Football), leading the state in kills by a middle. I continued playing, all 4 years, at the University of Tennessee and was awarded All SEC my senior year and led the team in kills, kill % and service %.

Your knowledge of the game and skills are guaranteed to improve learning the fundamentals of volleyball, which are broken down, visually and verbally. From proper footwork, positioning, passing, hitting, serving, setting and digging. Lessons are for all levels of play, beginners to collegian athletes. Stressing footwork, proper technique and ques to read on both sides of the net. Jumping exercises, along with condition is an important part as well

Coach Mark is awesome! After just one session I have seen the positive changes in my daughters play. She really enjoyed the time with Coach Mark and is looking forward to learning more from him (her words!). I have also noticed the joy of playing is back for her, which is something I was hoping for but I am pleasantly surprised it is back so soon. Coach Mark has exceeded my expectations!!

He was awesome! Very positive, on time, easy to understand, and really nice. Definitely a coach I would recommend.

Coach Mark knows how to coach! Just after the first session my daughter's motivation and confidence increased in addition to her level of play. He taught my daughter things that she had never yet been taught in three years of junior volleyball. I highly recommend him!

Coach Mark is a wonderful very informative coach! My daughter got a lot out of just one session with him and looking forward to more!
Highly recommend

Out lesson with Coach Mark was a great experience for my daughter that is new to the sport. The 1:1 time working on game mechanics left her with a great confidence boost and desire to get out and work on her game play.

Mark did a great job teaching the basics of serving, hitting, setting and defense for my daughter. He was patient and did a very good job. I would recommend him.

My daughter walked away from the first session excited about what she had learned. She's looking forward to more sessions. If you want to improve your game...Coach Mark. Thank you, Coach Mark!

Coach Mark was extremely knowledgeable and effective teaching passing, setting and serving skills to my novice grandsons. Great communications with the teenagers and provided clear instructions for each skill taught. Certainly the boys improved their skills and enjoyed the lessons.

I had a really good time during the practice, and he is both incredibly insightful, and obviously experienced. I do plan on scheduling more sessions with this coach.

Coach Mark is excellent at what he does. I can really see my daughter improving with each session. Mark is very professional, patient, dedicated and passionate for the game.

My daughter just completed her first session with Coach Mark, and we plan to continue working with him. He gave her specific, understandable instruction to improve her hitting, serving, and passing and she was able to see tangible improvements during their session.

Coach Mark did a great job helping my daughter. After only one session she has more confidence in her skills. Mark provided very specific instruction and positive feedback that did my daughter a world of good.

Mark is thoughtful with a great attention to detail. Really looks at the whole player to help fine tune skills and teach new techniques the right way. Great experience

Thanks for all your work with the girls you're doing a good job!
PLEASE let us know where you end up this year with club. We would love it if you would coach 18’s so she could work with you again. No pressure though! :) Jillian really respected you as a coach and felt like she learned a lot last year. Thanks for that. We hope to see you soon. I will look forward to hearing what you decide to do
