Expert Profile: Tom Houser

Expertise: I can answer any type of volleyball question: school, college, club, coaching, playing, etc. (I am not, however, a athletic trainer! haha)

Can you believe that 25% of the answers that I send to people are never read? It's been really surprising to me. If you're going to take all that time to send me a question, how about taking a few minutes to read it! :) haha I will almost always answer your question within 24 hours.

Then would you please come back and grade my answer!

Experience in the area
23 years coaching varsity, JV, club.

You can see all about me at www.coachhouser.com There are also free downloads for coaches & parents, and hundreds of smiling faces for you volleyball players!

Education/Credentials
BS degree from Va Tech in Math Education. MS degree from Va Tech in Secondary Administration. 28 years teaching high school math!

The Picture!
The picture that you see is my team after winning the 52-team Capitol Hill Classic in February 2008 in Washington DC. We were the only undefeated team in the 15's division. However, they presented our awards to the team that won the SILVER division! haha So the tournament directors had to reorder our medals and our player's MVP trophy, then mail them all to us later!

What do you like about this subject? I have a lot of fun answering questions from players, parents and coaches. In fact, I have 2 "I Can't Wait To Coach" ebooks for sale on my website. Two more may be coming out this winter!

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field? I'd like to coach as long as I can! I have a great time doing it. I can't get enough of it.

Thank you so much! I thought I was going crazy. I'm glad to know that I really did block (or attempt) to block serves in high school. :)
