  • what people say

    “Being coached by Kory and Brent gave me the final push I needed to be able to play post-secondary. They helped me gain more confidence in my skills both on and off the court. My skills were honed and I was pushed to learn as much as I could and keeping the love for volleyball alive. Their dedication to the team was unparalleled, they were always there for whatever I needed, and installed a competitiveness and hard work ethic that is useful all around in my life.”

  • what people say

    “As a former athlete that has had the opportunity to be coached by Kory Cheshire and Brent Siemens, I can honestly say it was an honour and privilege to experience and embrace their love for the sport of volleyball. They both greatly connect with each and every one of their athletes, and teach them great knowledge of the sport. On the court, in the weight room and in the classroom, Kory and Brent are always ready and willing to give feedback. Beneath their guidance these past few years, I have experienced great physical and mental growth as a young athlete. Growing as a player beneath their coaching, they have taught me the need for confidence and dedication to the sport, as coaches, they bring passion, dedication and knowledge to improve their athletes and themselves as coaches. Both of these coaches together create an atmosphere filled with inspiration and ambition for success, and fill athletes like myself with the drive to become the best athlete and teammate possible. I know that their new volleyball club will be filled with athletes that are passionate and willing to grind to find success through their coaching techniques and strategies.”
