We appreciate the comments that others have shared with us. Below are just a few from Rocket parents, Former Rocket players, and from non-Rocket parents who’s daughters have attended our clinics. We did not ask for these testimonials, people simply sent these words to us of their own volition. They speak volumes. <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We have several daughters in volleyball the past several years who have attended many clinics – including several large university clinics. I must say that your clinics go further<\/span> than all clinics we have attended.  The Rockets clinics teach and focus the girls more on technique and consistency.  I have never seen a clinic more detailed and structured<\/span> than the ones you provide.  My daughter will come away from your clinic with more knowledge, confidence and understanding than any clinic ever attended<\/span>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rockets was life changing for me.  Not only did I meet some of my best friends, it gave me opportunities that I never thought were possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I can’t tell you how impressed we are with your clinics. And we’ve been to quite a few. Your detailed instruction and the way your breakdown each skill is incredible. On the way home my daughter said to me, “…I think I learned more tonight than I did last year during club season.” Thank you for offering these clinics and we will definitely be back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rockets Recruiting Team did an awesome job helping me get recruited. Not only did they help send video to coaches who were interested, but she helped make sure the school was the right fit for me. Not many coaches are that caring about their players, and Rockets has so many caring coaches. I would definitely not be where I am today without their help!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now that Regionals is done and my cortisol levels have returned to homeostasis, I want to say, thank you for being a great coach to our daughter.  Watching volleyball grow from an activity she liked into her passion has been enjoyable.  Although it’s now very stressful because I can’t help her when things get tough.  She has developed a level of commitment she didn’t have before, and we are excited to see what she can do with it.  This is all due to the Rockets environment created by its wonderful staff and we love it!   .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Iowa Rockets gave me the foundation I needed to take my volleyball and leadership skills to the next level.  Very proud to be a part of the Rockets family!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Playing for Rockets gave me the opportunity to be seen by coaches at every level. Rockets places their teams in competitive tournaments where college coaches are present. And they also helped me create a great recruiting video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She wanted me to let you know that she is sad and is already missing her team, practices, and Rockets coaches. 
Rockets was the first club to open their arms and take the time to develop her.  We are not entertaining invitations to other clubs with fancier uniforms and flashier websites and constant social media posts.  As long as she earns it, she will be a Rocket, because we are loyal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rockets coaches were very helpful in my recruiting process! They were very respectful and helped me go from being unsure about collegiate volleyball to taking a chance and loving it. They let me make my own decision while still being there to guide me and help me figure out the best option for me. I ended up choosing a school I would have never chosen or even visited had it not been for Rockets helping me…and I am so happy I did!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
