The anticipation of a new season brings excitement and promise to athletes, coaches, and friends and family. It's a time when teams come together, aspiring to achieve their goals and dreams.

These meetings serve as the launchpad for the season, where strategy, goals, and team dynamics are meticulously discussed and planned.
What's on the agenda?
We kick off every year with a profound dive into the Force mission, a mission that defines our core values and beliefs. Our mission is nothing short of spectacular: we aim to provide a comprehensive approach to volleyball, spanning from the fundamentals to advanced techniques. But that's not all – we couple these skills with essential academic and athletic values, shaping players who not only excel in the sport but also in academics and future life endeavors. Now, I know what's burning in everyone's minds – when do we practice, and when are the tournaments? Fear not, because the moment you've all been waiting for is soon approaching. This is something we go over as a staff before because it's not just about the schedule; it's about fostering a sense of unity and support within our Force family. We believe that it all starts from within, with our dedicated staff coming together to chart a course for our athletes' success.
Among the exciting topics on our agenda for discussion are:
Gym Culture:
Creating the right gym culture is crucial to our success. Our coaches are dedicated to fostering an environment where teamwork, sportsmanship, and relentless dedication thrive. We'll delve into the values that make our gym a second home for our athletes, where they can not only improve their skills but also build lifelong friendships and memories.
