bio
Coach Teddy has been part of the Northeast Volleyball Club coaching staff since the summer of 2023, bringing a strong technical understanding of the game, competitive playing experience, and a genuine passion for helping athletes grow.
A Newtown High School graduate, Teddy was a two-time First Team All-State selection before continuing his volleyball career at SUNY New Paltz and Lasell University, where he earned Second Team All-Conference honors. He remains an active competitor in AVP grass volleyball, having won multiple Open-level doubles tournaments and earned a third-place finish at an AVP grass event.
As a coach, Teddy emphasizes strong fundamentals, technical development, and a deeper understanding of the game. He believes that great coaching goes beyond teaching skills and strategies; it’s about helping athletes build confidence, enjoy the process, and develop a lifelong love for volleyball. His passion for the sport drives his commitment to helping as many players as possible discover the same joy he finds on the court. One of his favorite coaching memories is celebrating a major upset victory alongside his father’s team, which he helped coach as an assistant.
Outside of volleyball, Teddy is a master’s student and substitute teacher who enjoys beekeeping, blacksmithing, hiking, pottery, and spending time in nature.
