Jermel Brown

I started playing volleyball as an 8th grader on Varsity, and have been playing over 20 years now. I hold the record for all time kills at North Rose Wolcott school district, and received All County MVP 4 years in a row. I love spending time with my family and my volleyball family. I continue to play in adult leagues and tournaments all year round. I am a proud dad AND foster parent. Aside from volleyball one of my favorite hobbies is ATV riding. I look forward to sharing my love for volleyball with the youth of this area!

Chris Goodman

I have been around Volleyball my whole life. Growing up my parents played it so it runs in the family. I started playing volleyball as soon as I could hold a ball and have since played competitively from 7th grade to College levels. I played at Midlakes High School under head Coach Kyle Salisbury. When I graduated in 2015 I went and continued to play Under Kyle at Nazareth College where I played for a year. Since then I have been playing in Adult Leagues around NY.

My Coaching experience also has a very large range. I started off in 2015 at Midlakes coaching the Modified Boys Volleyball for 2 years (2015-2017). I then took the position of Head Coach for the Hobart William Smith Club Volleyball Program for 2 years until I graduated College in 2019. In the 2020 Season I started Coaching Geneva High School JV Girls Volleyball and have been there since. I have also coached Club Volleyball with Seneca Strickers from 2020-2022.

Coaching philosophy: I strive to improve the volleyball talents in all of my players while developing their leadership skills, self discipline and team ethic. The desire to get better, push yourself and your teammates and staying on course as a team, can make every season a successful one. A positive attitude is everything!
