Year 5. Same mission. Bigger goals.

This season marks my fifth year coaching this incredible group of athletes. Watching this core group grow from young players learning the game to Open-level competitors has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my coaching career.

Every season has brought new challenges, countless hours in the gym, and an unwavering commitment to getting better. Their dedication, resilience, and work ethic have transformed them into a team ready to compete at the highest level.

This year, our goals are clear: compete against the best, earn opportunities to be seen by college coaches, and qualify for the biggest stages in club volleyball. Nothing will be handed to us—we will earn every opportunity through discipline, accountability, and relentless effort.

I'm proud of how far this team has come, but even more excited about where we're headed. The work starts now.

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has donated, sent kind words, or kept our mom in your prayers. It truly means more than you know. ❤️

We are officially just 2 weeks away from surgery after a few delays. As we get closer, continued thoughts and prayers are always appreciated.

For those who have asked how they can help, there are still a few items left on her Amazon wishlist, and I’ve attached the fundraiser below as well.

Thank you all for being here for our family. The outpouring of love and support that mom and our family have received has been incredible. We are so grateful for every prayer, message, donation, and kind gesture. 💕

Coach Lydia – Head Coach & Social Media Manager

Coach Lydia brings four years of coaching experience, including two seasons assisting a varsity high school program that achieved winning records. She has successfully led both beginner and competitive teams to success at local and out-of-state events.

A former setter, Lydia offers specialized expertise in setting and hitting. She has coached athletes at every stage of development—from their very first time on the court to advanced, high-level competitors. Her coaching philosophy focuses on setting high standards while providing the guidance, encouragement, and structure needed for athletes to reach them.

Lydia blends technical skill development with mental resilience, helping players grow both as athletes and as individuals. She is currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education at St. Petersburg College.

Outside of volleyball, Lydia enjoys art, traveling, and maintaining an active, healthy lifestyle. Her favorite quote is: “You always have two choices: your commitment versus your fear.” – Sammy Davis, Jr.

Coach Tommy

Coach Tommy has been coaching volleyball for more than 10 years throughout the Florida Region, developing athletes at both the club and high school levels. He is currently the Head Varsity Coach at Hudson High School and previously served as the Head Varsity Coach at River Ridge High School for two years and Anclote High School for three years.

Before beginning his coaching career, Coach Tommy played rugby at the University of South Florida. Following his collegiate career, he competed with several men's rugby clubs in the Tampa Bay area. As a member of Krewe Rugby Football Club, he helped the team win the Division II National Championship in 2010 and earn a national runner-up finish in 2011. He also played one season of semi-professional rugby with the Tampa Mayhem Rugby League.

As Co-Owner of Honu Volleyball Club, Coach Tommy is passionate about developing elite athletes both on and off the court. His coaching style is demanding, disciplined, and built on high expectations. He believes that success comes from accountability, consistency, and a relentless work ethic. While he challenges every athlete to push beyond their comfort zone, his ultimate goal is to help each player maximize their potential, compete with confidence, and develop the skills and mindset needed to succeed at the highest level.
