Gold Medal Squared is the collaborative effort of some of our countries most successful and experienced volleyball coaches. Founded by the late Dr. Carl McGown in 1985, our staff has been at the top of the game at every level: High School, Club, Collegiate, Professional Foreign Leagues, and International competition. Founded in 1985, we have over 30 years of experience running volleyball camps and coaching clinics throughout worldwide.
In additional to Carl, we have been heavily influenced by several of our countries most decorated volleyball coaches. Gold medal winning coaches Dr. Marv Dunphy, along with Dr. Doug Beal worked alongside of Carl, developing effective, proven methods that work at all levels of the game.
Our mission is to seek-out and share the most effective, up to date methods through our coaching clinics, summer volleyball camps, and online training platform, GMS+.
We have been running volleyball clinics for coaches, and summer volleyball camps for athletes since the 1980s. Our roots are firmly grounded in the rocky mountain states, which is where it all began. During the summer months, Carl, his assistant coaches, and his players would drive around Utah, Wyoming, Colorado, and Idaho running camps for rural junior high and high school programs. A lot has changed since then. We are now running events throughout the United States, Canada, and Asia.
Our advisory staff at Gold Medal Squared carries on the tradition of success. With several of our current staff members winning Olympic Medals in both the Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2020 Olympic games, our involvement at the top of the game continues. Our staff has been a part of every Olympic Games dating back to the 1980s.
Every member of our staff is honored and humbled to carry on the legacy that Carl McGown built. His commitment to principle based decisions, the fundamental skills, and teaching has impacted us all tremendously. We will be forever grateful for his relentless pursuit of the most effective ways to coach volleyball.
While our staff has experienced unparalleled success in the sport of volleyball, it's our clients success that we are most proud of. Since our beginning, we have watched thousands upon thousands of junior high, high school, and club volleyball programs win championships, many for the first time ever!
Whether you are a new coach looking to improve, and or experienced coach on the brink of winning a championship, we would be honored to partner with your program. Our methods are simple, effective, and time-tested at all levels and genders. Build your coaching foundation with Gold Medal Squared!
