Hi! My name is Shea Troncao I’ve been playing volleyball for about 9 years and just finished playing in college. I currently coach at a club down in folsom called Aspire. I have been a setter and a Libero, but going through college volleyball you just about learn how to do everything. I enjoy this sport with all my heart and for me to help anyone continue further with a future in volleyball makes me the most happy.

Hello, I started my volleyball career on a Recreational volleyball league, graduated to Seven Hills Middle Schools team for 2 years, Nevada Union High Schools team for 4 years, to then get into Sierra Colleges volleyball team.
Repetition and baby steps makes all the difference when progressing to new skills.
A typical day of training starts off with a little stretching so we can be safe while working our bodies, then we will move onto correct form and footwork, then we will progress to passing, serving, setting, hitting, blocking, etc. Depending on what lesson the player is on.
I am a new coach, I started last year with a small team apart of Aspire volleyball to move forward to assistant coaching an 18s team. Currently I am an assistant coach to a 16s boys team and a head coach to a 15s girls team.
My college coach was harsh but effective and taught me all there is to learn about volleyball skills. But mentally I learned the most from my 18s club coach. Volleyball isn’t just skills it’s also mental strength.
Athletes and Parents should have a coach that understands what it is like to be a young volleyball player wanting to get better and willing to get better no matter what. They need a volleyball coach who will teach not only skills but how to be strong mentally in volleyball.

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 determine the coach isn't a good fit after your first lesson, let us know within 24 hours and you're eligible for a refund. We will also be happy to recommend another coach - be sure to contact our support team.
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.
