Paul has been involved with FOG for 5 years in different roles: assistant coach, manager and a head coach. He has been a head coach for S. Bruce Smith girls’ team. Over 15 years in rec volleyball to boot.
Coaching Philosophy: Volleyball is just a path out of many to becoming a better person, making lifelong friends and having fun on the way. As athletes, we work hard, play as a team, and develop distinct technical and social skills - learn something new every day: that is what drives us to be better. We, as coaches, try to impart our knowledge and passion on to the game, and the players we develop.
NCCP Certification: Level 1 (pending)
