Sinead grew up playing volleyball in San Francisco, competing for Beach Vibes Volleyball Club before continuing her career as a setter at UC Santa Cruz and later at UC San Diego.
She began coaching in 2020 with Sand City Volleyball Club in Santa Cruz and has since worked with athletes ranging from 10–17 years old. While in San Diego, Sinead coached at Coast Volleyball Club, where she assisted with the 15-1s and 17-1s and served as head coach for the 10-1s and 11-2s. She is excited to be back in the Bay Area and lead SF Elite’s 11-1s this season!
Especially when coaching young athletes, Sinead emphasizes strong fundamentals, confidence, communication, and competitiveness while creating an environment whereathletes can grow and genuinely love the game. She hopes her players leave each season not only as stronger volleyball players, but also as more confident teammates and competitors.
