Why Grass Volleyball
vs. Indoor Volleyball

It’s Bigger Than Volleyball ®

Skill Development
- Learn From The Best!

VPT– Volleyball Pattern Training ®

Andor Gyulai

Leading Innovator

Why Grass Volleyball vs. Indoor Volleyball – Whether your kids are athletes or not, they likely love playing in the park on the grass with their friends. St. Johns Volleyball Club leverages and builds on this outdoor love to help your kids develop as athletes and develop a lifelong love of sports and volleyball. We like to say: “Keep Playing!” Our belief is the opportunity to experience volleyball outdoors, under the sun, with your friends, is one of the best experiences we can offer as a coach or parent to “Keep Playing!”

Grass Volleyball at Nocatee Park Fields offers many other benefits. Grass volleyball tends to only have 2, 3 or 4 players on each team. Our goal is only 2 players per team. Compare this to most indoor practice / teams with 6 players per side (7 with the Libero), this means your child touches the ball many more times with grass volleyball. More touches on the ball means more skill development. In addition, this is purposeful skill development in all the skills which most college coaches would tell you is preferred. More touches most importantly also equal more fun and more “PLAY!”

Grass volleyball also helps us to keep the class cost down which we can pass onto you by not having to pay gym fees, plus the ability to expand our number of courts as needed practice to practice. This provides an extremely high-quality youth volleyball class for the best value for your dollar in youth volleyball coaching. For beginning volleyball players, volleyball at the Nocatee Park fields is a great way to introduce your kids to the awesome life-long sport of volleyball versus investing thousands of dollars to learn indoor volleyball at a club.

It’s Bigger Than Volleyball ® – At Volleyball1on1 we deeply believe volleyball and sports are a vehicle for teaching important life lessons for success in life. We believe most coaches and parents are “like minded” in this pursuit of helping their children develop life and career skills through sports.

Co-founders of Volleyball1on1 Andor Gyulai and Vanessa Summers-Gyulai are deeply passionate about impacting the lives of youth in powerfully positive ways through their Franchise Like, Superior Coaching Systems ®, which include “It’s Bigger Than Volleyball” ®. Andor and Vanessa help Middle School, High School Varsity Head Coaches and their staff launch and manage their youth coaching systems to develop volleyball players in their program to be:

“Excellent goal-setting, communicative, self-directed, critical thinking, lifelong learners who thrive in competition and under pressure, who know how to work as individuals and / or with a team as a member
or a leader while being fair and considering others.”

These same Franchise-Like, Superior Coaching Systems ® will be applied at St. Johns Volleyball Club and discussed often with you through our ongoing parent meetings of youth players who attend Nocatee Park field location classes so parents can reinforce these systems at home.

Skill Development – Andor Gyulai, St. Johns Volleyball lead instructor is one of the top skill development coaches in the world. Beyond having many of the most popular videos in the world on YouTube in this area, Andor has been invited to present as the keynote speaker at the Florida Volleyball Coaches Association, Ohio Volleyball Coaches Association, Wisconsin Volleyball Coaches Association, New Mexico Volleyball Coaches Association, Missouri Volleyball Coaches Association, and The South Dakota Volleyball Coaches Association.

VPT– Volleyball Pattern Training ® – Regardless of the sport we as humans function best when we use good “Movement Patterns. “Bad Form” or a “Bad Movement Pattern” is either unsafe, inefficient or both. Bad form can lead to injury plus does not help maximize use of the body’s full potential.

VPT– Volleyball Pattern Training ® overcomes this by teaching good movement patterns while also teaching volleyball skills. Examples include a squat while passing, or good throwing form while hitting. Players will also learn how to identify and solve injuries as they happen for long-term overall body health and fitness.

Our Monday and Wednesday fitness class from 3:45 – 4:30 pm will be built around the education of VPT– Volleyball Pattern Training. ®

Having moved from NY last summer, my daughter had zero volleyball experience. But she really wanted to learn, so we joined Volleyball One on One.Her experience and training at this organization was excellent. She learned so much about the sport, had a great time in the process and experienced great skill training. We are so happy and proud that she even made the middle school team this year! Thank you:)

I highly recommend SJVC run by Coach Andor Gyulai, who has a true gift for bringing out the best in his players. He empowers these girls to be the best they can be, on the volleyball court and in life. Each coaching session has an important lesson attached such as working as a team, asking for what you want, and learning from your mistakes. Along with learning the sport of volleyball, the players are learning to be strong and resilient. Coach Andor wants the players to succeed and have fun along the way. He is passionate about volleyball and his enthusiasm is infectious, for these players are truly having fun while they learn the sport.

I would give him 10 stars if i could! We started with Andor last november and since then my son's game has gotten so much better, and his skill level has just kept improving when with him. Andor is truly one of the best coaches there is and his coaching style definetly made my son tap into his potential. He has given us so many great opportunities and fun things to do, it is never a dull day when with Andor. Send your kids to him for fun with your freinds while playing volleyball 🙂

We started going to Saint John’s Volleyball Club back in November and my 12-year old daughter’s volleyball game has already improved greatly. I love Andor’s coaching style. It is a very motivating and positive environment for the kids. He and his staff first worked with my daughter to determine where she needed to improve and then they immediately started doing drills to improve those areas.

The program is well run, organized and efficient and Coach Andor has a remarkable ability to simplify and reinforce the foundational skills and beyond. Highly Recommend!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

St. Johns Volleyball Club will run classes all-year going forward. Classes will be billed on a monthly basis to allow player and parents flexibility around their middle school / high school volleyball season as well as the playing of other sports. Players who attend class will be allowed to transition over to next class monthly. Classes will build on themselves to help players advance to the level they desire. St. Johns Volleyball Club will eventually launch a beach and indoor program as facilities become available.

Living in Florida, rain is an inevitable part of life when planning outdoor events. Depending on the rain level, volleyball will often continue during very light rain or after it has just rained. We use https://www.weatherbug.com/weather-forecast/hourly/ hourly forecast to predict if class will or will not happen. We let parents know via email 1 hour before class if canceled.
If for some reason we need to cancel multiple volleyball classes in a month we will then run make-up classes. Make-up classes will tend to run on Wednesdays and Friday’s. For classes canceled on Wednesday, we will run make-up classes on Tuesday and Thursday. (Please note: Make-up class does not apply to starters as you currently have flexibility to attend either Monday or Wednesday and can therefore make-up missed days easily.)

Parents can cancel at anytime by providing an email written notice before the end of the month. A one-time $85.00 materials fee will be due at the time of cancellation request if it is before the end of May 2024. Parents can email Club Co-founder & Director: Andor Gyulai directly at andor@volleyball1on1.com. If you have questions, please call 310-435-5840.

We do not offer refunds as players sign-up on a monthly basis, plus have the opportunity to try the class via our a drop-in option. We encourage new players to try the class with our one-time special promotion fee for their 1st drop-in class:

Register for a Middle School Drop-In Class For $30
Register for a High School Drop-In Class For $30

Being prepared for outdoor sports activity is key for success. This includes: Hat, Sunglasses, Sunblock, and Water / Gatorade.

“Winners Stay On!” – This is an important part of our team culture and something we teach in our classes. Our belief is that competition makes everyone better, and in our practice / classes we compete, and teach kids to compete. That said, part of our practice will involve players competing against other players. Better players will go up in courts and lower skilled players will go down in courts. With newer players, we will try keep them close to players of their own age first before focusing on just their skill level. Boys and girls will also often mix and compete together. We find until age 14 girls can compete physically on the same level as boys. After age 14 we find girls often have such an advantage from starting earlier than boys, they still beat them. Many girls still want to compete with boys all the way until 18 and after.

We believe that the net height should change for younger players in order to promote good form. This means lowering the net so your child can spike over the net even at a young age. The net height will change based upon the skill level and age of the court on which they train at NocVolleyball. For most players we will adjust the net height at about the bottom of their hand.

Our goal is between 8-10 players per court, but this will change to as low as 4 players per court depending on the day. We will often divide the courts in half so that we can play two games simultaneously on the same net so that we can maximize contacts on the ball. We also encourage newer players to play on a smaller court. This encourages more touches and this type of play is better for skill development.

Yes, we will offer other resources including: instructional videos, coaching tools and more. These will be developed and added as we get the program more established and we uncover the needs of the players.

Andor Gyulai will make himself available briefly before and after each practice. Please be thoughtful and courteous by keeping questions short and to the point. If you are interested in bigger questions about the long term future of your daughter or sons volleyball career or getting a scholarship, please understand that we could possibly help within the following framework: 1) We need to first build a working relationship together over the course of at least one season. 2) Thoughtfulness matters, quick questions are fine, but longer discussions need to be put on pause until the appropriate time. 3) Andor can set up a paid consulting call at $300 / hour if you want to take your time and get answers to your full satisfaction.

Andor Gyulai does not offer private lessons as his rate is $300 / hour. We do offered lessons with our trained Volleyball1on1 / Nocatee instructors if this is what you require. We will add more details as private lessons are requested.

We suggest all players purchase a 4 Pound Medicine Ball. This ball will be used for training setting, passing and VPT – Volleyball Pattern Training. The ball can be purchased on Amazon for about $25. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CKHE45W/

Volleyball1on1 is unique in that we have a proven systems called: Superior Coaching Systems ® and Whole Person Growth ® to teach valuable life lessons which we call: It’s Bigger Than Volleyball! ®

Volleyball1on1 will be hosting a parents meeting May 19th, at 6 pm to help educate you on our coaching systems. The goal of this parent meeting is so that you can reinforce these systems at home so we can work together to help your child in the best manor possible.

For players and parents looking to see if their child likes volleyball and the class, we offer a discounted one time drop-in rate of $20.

We encourage players and parents to drop-in sooner that later as friendships are being build in class, skills are being taught and most players who drop-in choose to continue with the class.

Andor Gyulai is well connected in the volleyball community. On Thursday May 19th Olympic Gold Medalist Phil Dalhausser joined St. Johns Volleyball Club for practice. Attendees got to take with Phil holding his gold medal plus got the opportunity to learn from Phil first hand how to get better at volleyball.
