Matt’s volleyball journey began in high school, where he competed on several rep teams, and continued through university while balancing varsity rugby training. These experiences not only deepened his passion for sport but also taught him the importance of discipline, teamwork, and resilience—values he carries into his coaching today.
As a trained Development Coach, Matt places a strong emphasis on the technical side of volleyball. He is committed to helping athletes develop a solid foundation in core skills, ensuring they build the confidence and ability needed to succeed as they progress in the game. He believes that when athletes master the fundamentals, they are better prepared to grow both on the court and beyond it.
Over the past 15 years, Matt has taught at the intermediate level while coaching both junior and senior boys’ and girls’ volleyball. His approach combines technical instruction with a commitment to personal growth, fostering athletes who are not only skilled players but also strong teammates, leaders, and members of their community.
Outside of coaching, Matt enjoys supporting his two daughters in their gymnastics training and competitions, often found cheering them on from the sidelines or driving them to practice.
