Coaches Education

Coaches Education

The Badger Region has made coaching education a priority. Badger Region will create and promote opportunities for Badger Region coaches to become certified, re-certify, and stay current with best practices in the sport of volleyball and the field of coaching.

The Badger Region has partnered with The Art of Coaching Volleyball to bring a renowned coaches clinic to Wisconsin this April! Learn More & Register Today!
The Art of Coaching Volleyball was founded on the belief that there’s no one “right way” to coach volleyball. AOC clinics include a unique panel of presenters—all with diverse backgrounds and experiences, and all eager to demonstrate their unique coaching styles and points of view—so you can find what works best for you. Check out some of the presenting coaches you can learn from in Milwaukee:

  • Ryan Theis, Head Coach, Marquette University
  • Marie Zidek, Head Coach, DePaul University
  • Mike Schall, Head Coach, University of North Carolina
  • Russ Rose, Former Head Coach, Penn State University
  • Terry Liskevych, AOC Founder, 3-Time Olympic Team Coach

Whether you’re a new coach or a seasoned veteran, you’re guaranteed to leave with dozens of new ideas to try in your gym next season. See you in Milwaukee!
Through our partnership, we’ve secured exclusive discounted pricing for Badger members:

If you’d like to attend the clinic in person, use code BADGER100 at checkout to save $100 per coach. You’ll also be able to watch the clinic on demand afterwards. You can save even more by registering in a group.

Virtual tickets: If you can’t make it in person, use code BADGER50 at checkout to save $50 per coach on virtual access. A virtual ticket lets you watch the livestream of the clinic and gives you unlimited on-demand viewing after the clinic.
