Club Volleyball Review For Peninsula Juniors Volleyball Club
When it comes to junior volleyball, the Peninsula Juniors is not one of the largest clubs but it may very well have some of the most experienced coaching staffs and mentors.
One would be very hard-pressed to find a better consultant or mentor than Coaching Consultant & Mentor - Don Shaw.
In 26 years, Don Shaw established Stanford University as a national powerhouse coaching both men & women's teams. He was named AVCA National Coach of the Year (1991), Volleyball Magazine Coach of the Year (1997), Regional/District Coach of the Year ('92, '94, '97) & Conference Coach of the Year ('85, '87, '91, '97).
Shaw has coached nine (9) Olympians, 44 All-Americans and 20 USA National Team members. The list includes 1988 Men's Olympic Gold Medalists Jon Root and Scott Fortune, as well as US National Team Volleyball Setter and 2008 Gold Medalist Kevin Hansen.
Five of his Stanford women's players earned seven (7) National Player of the Year honors: Kim Oden (1984, 1985), Bev Oden (1990), Kristin Klein (1991), Cary Wendell (1994, 1995) and current two-time Olympic Beach Volleyball Gold Medalist Kerri Walsh (1999).
Well-known among his peers as an outstanding clinician and ambassador of the game of volleyball, Don Shaw was the director of the Stanford Volleyball Camps (which he co-founded) for more than 20 years in addition to conducting numerous clinics and camps all over the U.S. and Canada.
Hitting Clinic Coach - Kim Oden
There isn't enough paper here to list the accolades for Kim Oden, two-time Olympian, Bronze medalist and National Volleyball Team Captain who is the hitting clinic coach for the Peninsula Juniors Volleyball club. This Stanford graduate and three-time Division I All American has played volleyball professionally overseas in Turkey, Italy, China and Brazil. Kim was a member of the Budlight 4-woman professional beach volleyball tour from 1993-1997.
As far as her coaching resume is concerned, Kim was the head varsity girl's volleyball coach at St. Francis High School for six years starting from 2002 to 2008 at which her team won the California State Championship in 2002 and 2003. She was an assistant coach at Stanford University and was a contributing staff member for the 2001 National Championship Team.
The Peninsula Juniors coaching staff includes setting clinic coach Katie Goldhahn who graduated from Stanford from 2002 to 2006 and was a member of the Stanford Women's Volleyball team, winning the NCAA Division I National Championship in 2004. She has coached for a number of clubs in Northern California including Delta Valley Volleyball Club, Palo Alto Elite, and Vision Volleyball Club.
Former PJRVBC player Shelley Signori is the first strength and conditioning coach.
There are twenty other qualified coaches, two per team, each certified in USA Volleyball IMPACT training, the Positive Coaching Alliance, and first aid including Denis Sheldon and Anne Marr with 16-Gold, Julianna Hernandez and Robert Fleming with 16-Blue, Ashley Combs and Tony Johnson with 16-White, co-head coaches Nicole Rathman and Chris Balestrieri, Eric Ballelos, Jessica Dragotto, and Nicole Wickstrom with 14-Gold, Samisoni Latu and Tony Knudsen with 14-Blue, Stephanie Burbank and Tony Wood with 14-White, Chantel Ross and Ashley Dolezal with 13-Blue, Amy Hoffman and Ali Van Rixel with 12-Gold and Karen Varley and Stephanie Ward with 12-Blue.
Formerly known as the Belmont Volleyball Club, the club name was changed to better reflect and represent its surrounding area. Junior and senior high school volleyball players from San Francisco and its peninsula that qualify to play at PJVBC are welcome.
