Beware - Fusion Volleyball Club has changed their name to Lonestar Volleyball Club. I am sure this is because of all the complaints they have floating around the internet under the Fusion name. This new club is still managed by the same person.
My experience was that the club is horribly disorganized and the coaches were terrible, unprofessional, and inexperienced. My daughter (age 14) is an experienced club player, but because of the lack of coaching, I believe my daughter's skills actually got worse playing for this club.
My daughter's coach knew nothing about children or how to engage them to be excited about playing. Besides not teaching them anything, the girls never worked as a team. The coach was young and just wanted to be a dictator. I believe in rules, but her rules were inconsistent when it suited her.
Half of the practice time was spent on running lines and suicides, and the other was spent with the girls lined up hitting. She either didn't know any other practice exercises, or just didn't care. Never did she work on form, or show any enthusiasm at practice or at games. And then she'd say she just didn't understand why this team didn't bond together.
I put up with this all season because I didn't want to cause trouble. I even helped the coach with many things since it was apparent that she didn't know much about children. She never thanked me, even when she asked me to do something. My daughter hated going because it was so discouraging, but I made her continue up until the last game when the coach played one of her dictator games and I'd had enough.
The cost of this club is way too high for the coaches to be so bad. It was a huge waste of money. I refused to make my last $300 payment so I'm sure they will come after me for it. If so, I will sue them for not delivering the type of club experience that their website claims. I'm sure I can get a few others to join me in the lawsuit. I don't know of one parent who was satisfied with the experience.
