We are looking for committee members from our general membership! We need/want more voices involved.
Committee Options
Our committee, made up of 25 coaches from all areas of the state. Will review profiles and videos for all 25 candidates.

To ensure all boys coaches are MIVCA members, provide All Region, All State and Academic Awards moving forward.
The Michigan Interscholastic Volleyball Coaches Association would like to pair our more experienced coaches with new coaches. This would hopefully give young coaches an avenue to develop a positive relationship with a more experienced coach throughout the year. Coaches will talk volleyball, share ideas, give guidance, answer questions, assist in planning season activities, and provide ways to better communicate with parents and players. This can encourage a positive relationship with coaches from around the state and actively engage them in their state association.
This committee will work together to help educate both the coaches and players in our state about sports recruits. This committee will also help to provide the marketing team with graphics and videos for social media. General training on Sports Recruits will be necessary.
