What Coaches Are Saying

★★★★★

My group of coaches just returned from your clinic in Seattle. WOW! While we are a little overwhelmed by the amount of information presented, we are all so excited and motivated to get back in the gym with our teams. This was hands down the best volleyball training we have experienced.

— Jason — Washington State Club Director

★★★★★

This is my 5th GMS coaching clinic and you guys never disappoint. While the principles don't change, you guys are always staying on the edge of the game, adding and adjusting based on how the game evolves. Every time I attend, I pick up new nuggets of information. Another great clinic under my belt!

— Ernie — Club and High School Coach

★★★★★

This clinic pretty much changed everything for me as a coach. We took this information back to our program and got right to work. Last year, our team only won 5 games. This fall, we won 15 games and nearly won the league championship for the first time ever. This stuff works!

— Molly — Varsity Volleyball Coach

★★★★★

I just wanted to say thanks! Since Gold Medal Squared started running our volleyball camps two years ago, our record has gone from 3-26 to 20-14 this past season. Additionally, this was the first time in school history to have a team reach 20 wins! Thanks again!!!

— Michelle — Varsity Volleyball Coach
