Types of Coaches Available for League Teams
LoneStar Professional Coach Team
- Staff coach trained to conduct proper application of all volleyball skills using LoneStar’s consistent training methodology based on Gold Medal Squared (followed by the USA National Team).
- All staff coaches utilize consistent terminology and skill application throughout all LoneStar Youth Volleyball programs.
- Higher probability of team placement as LoneStar controls the number of teams and placement of athletes
- LoneStar Coach Teams have a primary professional coach for practices and games.
- Due to overlaps or conflicts in schedules, a substitute professional coach may fill in from time to time. Our goal is one assigned coach to one team for the season.
Existing Team with their own Practice Facility
- An option is available for an existing team that practices in a location they have secured. The cost of the practice facility is removed from the fee and is paid as a Team Fee rather than an individual player fee. All other fees are included in the Team Fee paid by the Volunteer Coach who registers the team.
