We’re Emma and Garrick, the coaches behind this exciting volleyball opportunity for young athletes. Both of us have a deep passion for sports and are excited to help the next generation of athletes develop their skills and love for the game.
Emma is a former setter for the University of New Brunswick and has extensive coaching experience with several club/school teams. Her background as both a player and coach allows her to guide athletes in building strong skills and a lasting connection to volleyball.
Garrick has spent most of his coaching career in basketball but is a strong believer in the benefits of cross-sport training. His approach focuses on teamwork, leadership, and creating a fun, competitive environment where athletes are encouraged to grow and push themselves.
Together, we bring a fresh energy to the sport of volleyball. We’re on a mission to change the way young athletes, especially girls, view their involvement in sports. Too often, athletes lose interest in their sport as they grow older, but we believe that being an athlete should be a lifelong title. We want to show young girls that they can love the game beyond their younger years and continue playing for fun, fitness, and competition into adulthood.
We want our athletes to understand that the skills they develop—discipline, teamwork, and resilience—will serve them well, both on and off the court, throughout their lives.
When we're not coaching, we love spending time with our two children and dog, whether rollerblading, playing sports, or just enjoying family time. And, of course, we’re huge Winnipeg Blue Bombers fans!
We’re excited to share our energy, experience, and love for volleyball with you at this camp and help you grow as an athlete.
