Coaching Philosophy
Coaches are selected based on their experience, knowledge of the game, coaching capability, enthusiasm, and temperament, and have passed an extensive background screening. One main quality that we look for in our coaches is a belief in coaching by encouragement rather than intimidation and that they buy into our mission while impacting each player with the "whole human" approach. We believe the success of our club is only as good as the development of our coaches. All of our coaches are IMPACT certified, and many have CAP certifications. All coaches regularly participate in on-the-court training during clinics, camps, and other coaches’ training events. The best clubs in the country require their coaches to teach the same language, techniques, plays and culture from the time that they enter the club until they leave for college. Austin Skyline ascribes to this philosophy and has a coaching structure in place to help implement it.
Each coach’s main objective is to provide our athletes with as much quality individual and team training as possible in a positive and encouraging learning environment. They are required to plan and organize their team's individual practice sessions, administer instruction at tournaments, and develop the composition and organization of the team. Our coaches strive to be excellent role models for the players and all others with whom they may come into contact. The staff of Skyline Juniors will provide all the administration for tournaments, travel, and finances within the club so our coaches can concentrate on coaching and their own professional growth.

We take great pleasure in showcasing our style and philosophy on teaching the game of volleyball, with a "whole human" approach. We understand the ties that are formed in team sports, and we're dedicated to being one of the best clubs in the nation. We believe this starts with our staff having the same vision, commitment, and cohesion in our training style and techniques that will allow us to do so.
The mission of Skyline Juniors is to be one of the highest quality clubs in the nation that will go the extra mile to develop and showcase our athletes. We will constantly strive to enable both our players and our coaches to reach their full potential.
Our organizational values are what separate us from our competition. At Skyline we have the following values:
- Strive to make decisions based on what is best for the athletes.
- Train athletes to excel at higher levels of competition.
- Integrate coaching strategies & techniques at each level so players can take what they have learned and apply it throughout their volleyball careers.
- Sustain a coaching philosophy throughout the club based on positive reinforcement, and motivation.
- Provide year-round training programs.
- Number of teams will not exceed the number of quality coaches available.
- Advise and mentor our athletes in order to timely and effectively market them to college volleyball programs.
