Boys Future Reign

Coach Meredith’s volleyball journey began in 1996 at Olympia Volleyball Club, where she trained under Bob Stevens. After earning a podium finish in the bronze division at USAV Junior Olympics, she was hooked! She continued her club career with Northwest Juniors VBC, where her teams earned podium finishes at Junior Olympics and Davis.

A highly recruited middle blocker, Meredith chose the United States Naval Academy, where she started as a freshman. After her first season, she transferred to The Evergreen State College, embracing the opportunity to help build its original volleyball program from the ground up. Following college, an opportunity to pursue beach volleyball in Brazil was cut short by a significant knee injury. Coaching became another way to carry her passion for the sport forward—a journey she had already begun during her senior year of college.

Meredith’s coaching philosophy centers on developing well-rounded, multi-sport athletes who can confidently choose their athletic path when the time comes to specialize. She sees Future Reign as an opportunity for motivated young athletes to receive focused, meaningful volleyball training while maintaining room for other sports and interests.

Her practices emphasize measurable goals, intentional repetitions, and consistent effort. Athletes learn to break larger skills into specific actions, understand how their bodies move, and recognize their progress along the way. Meredith encourages players to arrive ready to hustle, learn, and support one another as they build strong fundamentals.

Her approach is simple: “We set measurable goals, and then accomplish them. Every practice.”

Outside the gym, Meredith enjoys gardening and spending time outdoors with her husband and their children. Their family loves everything from Nordic skiing, sailing, surfing, and paddleboarding to baseball, climbing, hiking, and camping. They embrace both the sunshine and the rain that make Washington such a beautiful place to call home!
