📍 Hosted during the Art of Coaching Volleyball Clinic (AOC)

I’m excited to share that we will be conducting a GoKids Youth Sports™ Skills Trainer Certification Course during the 2026 Art of Coaching Clinic in Dallas (Coppell), Texas—just like we did in San Antonio in 2023… and this one is going to be BIGGER, BETTER, and FULL of energy! 💥🏐

This certification is designed for coaches, youth leaders, and volleyball educators who want to become stronger teachers of the game—especially for kidz and youth athletes. If you love helping young players build confidence, learn effective and efficient skills that are anatomically correct and biomechanically sound, and truly fall in love with volleyball, this is for YOU!

✅ What You’ll Learn + Experience:
🏐 Age-appropriate volleyball teaching progressions
🏐 How to teach utilizing the Nelson Methodology
🏐 Fun and effective drills that keep kidz engaged
🏐 Communication tools that connect with young athletes
🏐 A structured system that improves skill development AND confidence
🏐 On-court demonstrations + hands-on learning with kidz that you can use immediately
⭐ Players ages 5–10 will be on court Saturday afternoon for an on-court practical, giving coaches real-time experience working with youth athletes.

⭐ SPECIAL NOTE: This certification course will be conducted by BYOP®, GoKids Youth Sports™ and RNN Sports Gym™ Founder, and 5X Hall of Famer Ruth N. Nelson.

This is more than a certification course—this is a coaching experience built around leadership, learning, and helping kidz thrive through sports. 💛

⭐ WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
✔️ Youth volleyball coaches (rec + club)
✔️ Elementary / middle school PE teachers
✔️ New coaches who want structure and confidence
✔️ Experienced coaches who want fresh ideas and proven progressions
✔️ Coaches who are passionate about growing the game at the grassroots level
