The new off season volleyball season has started and Northern Lites has returned based out of Reed City Michigan. BE CAREFUL OF THIS PROGRAM! It is now being run from a recreational standpoint. The people involved are self interested and not player interested.
You will be charged for this program but only receive the basis of recreational volleyball. The coaches are not qualified to improve players at the high school level. The lead coach was discharged from Reed City Schools for inappropriate behavior to the female athletes. This person was hired because of personnel friendships.
Any person joining this program must watch out for their children. Their safety is at risk. They will not be given the tools to improve and advance a player. They are just looking for numbers. It is recommended you find a reputable program. Their first year the director stole parents money and didn't pay for the tournaments.
The second year, the people that ran it did not listen to the reputable coaching staff but made the teams based on their own self interests, then fired the very reputable head coach the day of the state tournament because he was aware of many issues with the group of Reed City parents that were not in the best interest of the players.
Now they are trying again this year with a rec volleyball standard while hiring a coach who should not be around adolescent girls. Be advised that your child and money would be safer and better suited in established, reputable programs throughout Michigan.
