COACHING VOLLEYBALL SINCE 1985.

GMS started with a simple idea: that the best volleyball coaching doesn’t have to be complicated. Forty years later, we still believe that.

WHERE WE STARTED

Simple idea. Long track record.

GMS was founded in 1985 on the belief that volleyball coaching could be taught, applied practically, and understood by any coach in any gym.

HOW WE THINK

Simple > Complex

We don't believe great coaching requires complicated systems. We believe it requires clarity — clear drills, clear feedback, clear expectations. That's what we teach.

OUR COMMUNITY

Coaches at every level. One goal.

From first-year JV coaches to club coaches who've been running programs for decades — GMS coaches want to keep getting better. That's the only requirement.
