Parent and Player Testimonials

“My daughter has played club volleyball for 3 years, 2 of those have been with Spark. With Spark, we have found our “home team”. The culture at Spark is different and special. They focus not only on volleyball skills, but other important life skills such as teamwork, respect, and a focus on family. Playing with Spark has not only allowed my daughter to grow and be challenged as a player but also as a human being. They foster a culture of mutual respect and cohesion between players, parents, coaches and referees. Volleyball is fun again!”

“The best investment you can spend on a child is time” were the words I heard from Director Juan Martinez when our daughters joined the SVC family many years ago.  The time our family has spent with Spark has created great memories, friendships and bonds that we will have indefinitely.  While the SVC goal is to help form athletes, coaches also help players reach their full potential on and off the court. SVC has helped my girls develop skills that they will take with them in life.

"Spark was the ideal fit for my daughter and our family for her first club volleyball season. From the preseason clinics to the tryouts, team placement, and the knowledgeable coaching staff, Spark created a welcoming environment that allowed my daughter to grow as an athlete and teammate. Spark Volleyball Club culture fosters a sense of belonging and inclusivity, making everyone feel like part of the family. We are looking forward to season 2 with Spark!"

"I’m so grateful for how this volleyball program helped me grow, both as an athlete and as a person. I've learned invaluable lessons about teamwork, discipline, and pushing through challenges, all of which have been crucial in getting me to play at the college level.

I want to thank all my club coaches for their incredible guidance and support. You saw my potential and pushed me to achieve it, and I wouldn't be where I am today without you.

And of course, I can't forget my amazing teammates. Thank you for the support, and the unforgettable memories. This journey wouldn't have been the same without each and every one of you. Thank you to the entire club for everything!"

"It has been such a joy to watch my daughter’s passion for the sport grow while at SVC.  Under Juan’s leadership, the coaching staff is knowledgeable and focuses on developing each players’ potential.   She continues to make improvements each year while learning to be a good teammate and leader on and off the court.  The SVC culture fosters a strong sense of community and belonging among players and families.  It is truly where she found her “spark.”

"Our family absolutely loves Spark volleyball club. Director Juan and coach Ari are amazing coaches and run some great clinics. They keep the girls moving and they're good at what they do. We love that Spark is a family-oriented club. From the first day we attended one of their clinics we immediately fell in love and knew this was going to be our home. Their fast paced, encouraging environment was so welcoming. We knew they were going to be a great fit for our girl, and we were right. Our girl loves Spark and has found a deeper love for volleyball. Best part, Spark quickly became family to us. They really do want the best for each of their players and their families. Our family suffered a devasting loss earlier this year. The amount of love and support that the whole Spark club showed us was truly incredible. We are forever thankful for this club and the community they have created. We're excited and honored to be a part of the Spark club/family."
