E.L.I.T.E Coaches

The 2011 Season has marked another pivotal point in the VA Elite evolution.  As you may or may not know, we as a club spent a considerable amount of time identifying and defining our core values.  As the Club President, this was an extremely purposeful exercise because this allowed me and this organization to share a common language in describing who we are.  It is also a reminder that we are so much more than just a volleyball club - that we are, in fact, a community with a common goal to prepare young women for the experiences of life, and that it truly takes a village.

 

So, as a reminder, ELITE stands for:

 

Excellence

Leadership

Initiative

Teamwork

Enjoyment

 

EXCELLENCE – A cornerstone of our values.  We use words like: Passion, Pride, and Commitment to describe what Excellence really means at our club.

 

LEADERSHIP – A major ingredient in the Elite experience, with words like: Character, Authenticity and Purpose.

 

INITIATIVE – You can’t build a community without initiative, and as described by: Enthusiasm, Drive and Confidence.

 

TEAMWORK – Volleyball maybe the best sport to showcase: Respect, Trust and Support.

 

ENJOYMENT – Why do anything that is not fun, because we all have to have: Celebration, Innovation and Laughter.

 

As a celebration of our core values, VA Elite recently recognized the athletes and coaches that best exemplified our values through their performance and actions as demonstrated throughout the season.  The entire club was brought together at the recent MAPL in Hampton Roads to celebrate, recognize and acknowledge some really amazing young women and coaches.

VA Elite Coaching Day 2011 Sets the Tracks for a Successful Season!

Virginia Elite believes on-going professional skills development is critical to continue to strengthen our coaches’ impact on both their performance as a coach and their engagement with their players.  That being said we value and invest in one of our most valuable resources, our coaches, and this leadership day for the coaches will have a positive impact on their development, the girls development and the club going forward. 

The day was a huge success and had many elements, to read more and see pictures from the day please read the document below.

Coming soon in early December – Virginia Elite Day. 

A full day focused on core values, leadership skills development and mental preparation for playing in the season and in College.  Something for everyone in the VA Elite family (players, coaches and parents)!
