The Keystone Region traveled to Messiah University in Harrisburg this past weekend to The Art of Coaching Volleyball Clinic. This particular clinic was a rare opportunity to be in the presence of some true greats in the world of volleyball.
KRVA partnered with AOC a year ago to bring this top-notch coaching clinic to our very own backyard. Little did we know at the time that two of our presenters, Penn State and the University of Pittsburgh would go on to become #1 and 2 in the Nation in the women’s NCAA DI Finals. When THAT happened, the KRVA Office was beyond excited about bringing such an amazing opportunity to our Pennsylvania coaches who could easily travel to the venue compared to the many who flew in from as far as California and even Canada.
We saw several of our Region club coaches, met Pennsylvania high school and middle school coaches, and one of our very own Board members was there, too. (Shout out Amanda Fetter!)
The crowd was treated to insider tips and true one-on-one chats with these greats:
- Russ Rose
- Dan Fisher
- Jen Greeny
- Megan Hodge Easy
- Michael Henchy
- Justin Beachy
(By the way, we found out that THIS clinic is the LARGEST clinic since before COVID. ??!!!!!)
We aren’t giving anything away. We are really sorry if you couldn’t work this into your schedule this time around. It really was worth every penny. The entire crowd was just energized and happy the entire time. The KRVA staff felt honored to simply be a part of the weekend. Our hope is that if you missed this opportunity, and want to attend one in person at some point in the future, please bookmark The Art of Coaching website. And if you want to catch this past weekend on-demand, you can purchase that option HERE and watch the weekend we just experienced live.
