I am writing to express my deep disappointment with our experience this past season at Lava…read moreVolleyball Club. While I had hoped this would be a season of growth and confidence-building for my daughter, it instead became a frustrating and disheartening experience -- not only for her, but for us as a family. From the very beginning, it was apparent that the head coach fostered an environment where mistakes were not used as learning opportunities but as reasons for ridicule. It became clear that when players made errors, they were often met with sarcasm or mockery. As a parent, I wanted to speak up earlier, but out of respect for my daughter's wishes and her fear of retaliation -- which, given the environment, I believe was a valid concern -- I refrained. Communication from the coaching staff was minimal and ineffective. In fact, parents were explicitly asked to direct any questions through the players themselves, which put undue pressure on the kids and left parents out of the loop. There was also never any mention or effort made toward team bonding, which is so important for a positive and cohesive experience -- especially at this developmental level. When the head coach was absent, the assistant coach maintained a more positive dynamic. However, even then, the tone among the team seemed immature and cliquish, which I understand may stem from the young age and inexperience of the head coach. The final straw for me, and what compelled me to write this letter, was our trip to Las Vegas. While my daughter played the first day, she was benched the second day after missing one serve -- a single mistake that immediately led to her removal from the game. To make matters worse, the head coach was overheard telling the assistant coach that she wouldn't be playing my daughter anymore -- loud enough for her to hear. She didn't play the rest of that game or the one after. When my daughter respectfully asked why, she was told it was because she missed her serve. All players missed serves throughout the tournament, yet none were sidelined as she was. She was later told she might play again -- but not in her usual position. In the third game, she was put in a position she had never played, clearly unprepared and set up to fail. Despite her effort, it felt punitive, not developmental. If statistics were kept, I am confident they would show that my daughter was not the weakest player on the team. Additionally, she was reprimanded for being on her phone before warm-ups, yet others who did the same were not held to the same standard. It was inconsistent and unfair. What hurts the most is that instead of building her up, this coach tore down her confidence. She took what should have been a highlight of the season and turned it into an embarrassment for my daughter. This is the opposite of what a youth sports coach should represent. I sincerely hope that my voice is heard, not just for my daughter, but for future players. If I am the first to bring this to your attention, I doubt I will be the last. I urge you to reevaluate the coaching approach and the emotional support being offered to these young athletes. They deserve to grow in confidence and skill -- not be made to feel small for trying.

We travel with the team as parents all over the country via USA Volleyball schedules. These people care about your kids and their well-being. Their job is to teach our kids Volleyball they do that well. This level of Volleyball is not daycare or kiddy camp. It's run by real Volleyball players that want your kids to be all they can be. Too many parents thrive on drama. Please leave it at the curb. No drama from the mama's please. LAVA teaches team synergy and it's refreshing to witness. If your player is good, they will make them great. If your player is mediocre they will make them good. For a player to be great they need it to be within. There is no magic wand here. The best players get there early, leave late and wonder what else they could have done better.

I drove to the Santa Clarita Sports Complex almost every weekday and many weekends for 4 years when…read moremy son joined the West Ranch Swim team. While he practiced or competed, I would walk the area to pass time. I had not been back for a good while. Today was a perfectly cool and partial cloudy day. The husband and I decided to pack up our lunch to have it outdoors. We read about some of the improvements that have been made at the SC Sports Complex, so we thought it would be nice to have our lunch there and explore. It wasn't busy at all when we arrived, which was such a stark change from when I used to drive here with my son. Parking was very easy. The park is clean and very well maintained. The familiar spots are unchanged --- Dog Park, Aquatic Center and Gymnasium. The new/updated sections were thoughtfully constructed and designed -- Bike Park, Basketball Courts and shaded picnic areas. We noticed a volleyball court by the dog park which we don't remember seeing before, but it also didn't look new. We were super excited to see that The Rink is being built. We'll definitely be back to see that when it's done. There aren't any clear walking paths -- we just kept wandering around to explore, sometimes having to backtrack to get to another area. It was an enjoyable time nonetheless, especially when it came time to have our lunch while admiring the lovely views of SCV.

Not track but ANY program including AYSO, Little League, etc. This isn't coming as just a parent but one who competed at the youth, high school and collegiate levels. Broken down into age groups from Gremlins (8 and under) to Intermediate (high school aged) this program treats all kids equal with the goal of having them become better. Not just on the track but in life as well. Ribbons are awarded to all with the opportunity to compete at invitational meets and advance to postseason as well. If you child is bored of their "usual" sports or is looking for something to help with their conditioning, you would be hard-pressed to find a better program in Santa Clarita.

I don't know about Canyons Aquatic Club before 9/2025 but rehiring Coach Mike Bechtholdt to coach…read moreagain here was one of the best things that this Aquatic Club could have done. He really defends and protects the kids in Challenge 2 group. Swim practices reflect the degree of difficulty and rigor of the meets that the kids swim in. Coach Alyssa, who coaches the younger kids and does a really good job at it. Even the swim lessons taught by other coaches seem very hands on and technical. I see them talk to the kids and correct them. So if you start at Canyon for lessons, it'll prepare you for competitive swimming under Coach Kyle. Plus, Canyon helps its swimmers with swim scholarships. Something many people don't know about unless they stay and swim competitively up through high school. I highly recommend Canyon Aquatic Club w/o ANY reservations.
