It is those same qualities that Norm instills in all that he meets and works with, he’s the kind of person you want to be around and learn from.”

"Over the last six months our two kids have had the pleasure of being involved with Norm on and off the court. He started by coming to watch our daughter at a JO tournament, all on his own time, to see what she could do to improve on her swing. From there we were invited to attend his open gyms on Sunday for further instruction. Norm has the ability to individualize each player, giving one on one attention according to the players skill level. He instructs at each movement correcting and complementing as they go thru the motions. Both our son and our daughter loved the time they were able to spend with Norm and each looked forward to every opportunity they had to work with him. He not only knows the sport of Volleyball but also knows how to instruct at a level where kids are able to understand what it is he is trying to achieve for them. We are looking forward to working with Norm in the future in whatever opportunities are presented to us."

"Norm has also gone above and beyond in terms of helping my daughter understand and navigate through the college recruiting process and he’s been an advocate of hers since her sophomore year in high school. I can’t fully express how important his involvement has been in terms of college and in terms of how he’s reached and influenced my daughter on a level apart from volleyball."
