What past clinic attendees are saying
★★★★★ VERY INFORMATIVE! “I loved the variety of coaches. The ability to see things from different perspectives. These coaches were animated and very informative and entertaining. I loved every second.”
– Baltimore Clinic Attendee
★★★★★ ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! “Even though it was a load of information, the way the clinic was put together was perfect. Segments weren’t too long, there were enough breaks, watching the players helped me analyze the drills, and the speakers were phenomenal. Absolutely worth every penny.”
– Chapel Hill Clinic Attendee
★★★★★ WELL OILED MACHINE “The AOC clinic was a well oiled machine with useful comprehensive and relevant material. The combination of personalities, experience and philosophy of the presenters was priceless! So glad I invested my time and money to attend; my players will benefit from what I learned.”
– Omaha Clinic Attendee
★★★★★ HELPED ME BECOME A COMPETENT COACH “I’ve never coached or played volleyball and I agreed to coach my school’s 12-14’s after a request from my students. I had no idea what I was doing and the clinic helped me to become a competent coach after having almost zero volleyball know-how. I’ve now fallen in love with the sport! I strongly feel that AOC resources are 100% worth the money I’ve spent on them.”
– Phoenix Clinic Attendee
★★★★★ EXTREMELY GRATEFUL! “I have been to several coaching clinics, but this one was by far the most organized, and had the best coaching lineup with the best information that I have ever seen. The coaches presented the information so that every coach, no matter what kind of experience they have, could benefit from the information. I loved being able to listen to the coaches explain a process, then use the girls to demonstrate the process so that we could get a visual to use with our own team. The schedule was maintained really well, and I came away from this clinic feeling more prepared to coach high school varsity for the first time. I am extremely grateful!”
– Las Vegas Clinic Attendee
