Get to know Coach Jake

About Me:

I was one of only two left-handed outside hitters at the Division I level, beginning my college career as an undersized walk-on before earning a scholarship. Competing at the highest level required mastery of fundamentals, elite game IQ, and relentless attention to detail. My unique experience as a player allows me to instantly spot technical flaws that most athletes miss. Combined with my coaching experience, I can demonstrate skills precisely, provide actionable corrections, and help athletes develop their mechanics, confidence, and competitive performance faster and more effectively than standard training methods.

How I can help you improve your game:

By teaching athletes methods of self-assessment alongside technical skill development, I empower them to identify and correct errors both during our lessons and independently in team practices. This approach ensures that every rep they take becomes a coachable moment, reinforces consistent technique, and builds a deeper understanding of the game. Through ongoing feedback and process-focused training, my athletes develop the tools to improve without direct instruction. making skill growth an intentional and continuous part of their development.

What a typical training session looks like with me:

Training sessions are always tailored to client needs; however, a general training session would go as follows.

-Brief but effective warm-up

-Ball control skills broken down into specific movements

-"Live" defensive work

- Serve receive

- Attacking/Blocking work

- Cooperative evaluation and cooldown

Career summary and accomplishments:

Playing: -Top 10 team in blocks per set and digs per set -Top 10 in Barton history for kills and digs per set - 2x AAU National Championship bronze medals - 1x Conference Carolinas Semifinals appearance Coaching: - 5 Years of experience at the NCAA level: 1 year of Division 1, 4 years of Division 2 - 1x AAU National Championship (Boys 16 Open) - 2 Second round playoff appearances and 1 semifinal appearance (Conference Carolinas) - Club coaching experience at Triangle Volleyball Club, Orlando Gold, and WGVA Chaos - Camp coaching experience at Gold Medal Squared, UTampa, and UCF

Best coach I ever had:

JT Deppe, there's nobody better

What athletes and parents should know about me:

I come from a family where we had to make sacrifices to allow me to play club volleyball. I understand how much can go into creating these opportunities for your child. It is this understanding that pushes me to provide the best instruction and experience possible for all young athletes.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.

Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.

Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!

We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.

Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.

Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.

The AU guarantee (refund policy) has you covered! If you find yourself needing to cancel or adjust your booking within 24 hours of your purchase, just let us know. We'll provide a refund - no questions asked. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we're here to support your learning journey.

Our coaches are open to helping athletes of any age and skill level. Please message your desired coach to ensure their skillset fits your needs.

AU was created by former collegiate and professional athletes. We understand the benefits of training with a private coach. It develops discipline, boosts confidence, and provides an undeniable advantage - whether you are just learning the game or looking to earn a college scholarship. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process and we proudly showcase a 10% acceptance rate, so you can trust you're training with the best.

At the end of the day, our mission is to provide athletes with better opportunities to succeed through coaching. You won't find a platform, and group of dedicated specialists, more excited to help you achieve your athletic goals!
