Camille Davis 12U-/16U Coach
"Volleyball has been my passion since 6th grade. I played through high school and continue at UC Davis with both the men's and women's club team's, and I still compete in local indoor and outdoor tournaments. I believe competitive teams are built on skills, accountability, and heart. My goal is to push athlete to raise their standard- technically, tactically, and mentally- while creating a team culture where every player feels supported and valued.
As a nursing student, I've learned how to perform under pressure, stay resilient, and take care of my team. I bring that same mindset to the court: high expectations, hard work, and a lot of encouragement. I'm here to help you grow your game, build your confidence, and love competing. Let's get to work!"
