A NOTE FROM COACH LAUREN:

At KOVA Athletics, volleyball skills training is designed to help athletes build confidence, improve technique, and develop the game IQ needed to compete at the next level. Whether you're learning the fundamentals or refining advanced skills, every session is tailored to your individual goals and position.

As the Varsity Head Coach at Newton Country Day School and a coach with SMASH Volleyball, one of the premier volleyball clubs in the region, I work with athletes across a wide range of ages and skill levels. I am committed to continuous learning through leading volleyball education programs, including Gold Medal Squared and The Art of Coaching Volleyball, ensuring that my coaching reflects the latest teaching methods and proven training principles.

My background as a physical therapist provides an additional perspective that sets KOVA Athletics apart. I understand how athletes learn movement, allowing me to break down complex skills into simple, effective progressions. Along with technical instruction, I incorporate guidance on strength, movement quality, and injury prevention so athletes can train smarter, stay healthy, and perform with confidence on the court.
