Griffin Weinkam joins Excel with more than 13 years of coaching experience and more than 5 years of experience coaching volleyball. He began coaching club volleyball in 2021 at the 11u and 10u age groups but had previously spent two years as a volunteer assistant and practice player at NCAA D2 Western New Mexico University. Coach Griffin loves the sport of volleyball deeply and aims to empower young athletes to love the sport just as he does.

Griffin’s volleyball journey came to start after his NCAA tennis career ended in 2019 and he quickly fell in love with the sport. He currently competes in adult leagues and tournaments as often as he can, primarily as an outside hitter. A self-proclaimed volleyball nerd, Griffin is a true student of the game and is constantly looking to improve his volleyball knowledge and skills as both a coach and a player.
