Angela Freeze

Director, Co-Owner of Atown Volleyball

Angela’s experience combined with her authentic love for the sport of volleyball provide a powerful motivator for her players and coaches.

Angela is truly passionate about playing and coaching volleyball. Her philosophy of addressing the whole athlete individually in order to set the team up for success is evident in the definite style of Atown coaching. She empowers her coaches and players to believe in themselves through building up self esteem. Angela’s distinct style is instilled into her coaches as they teach correct techniques, skills and strategy. Fun and family time are just as important to prevent player burnout. She believes in getting to know the players personally and travels to their school games. #Atownontheroad #Atownfam

Angela’s love of volleyball began early in life in Johannesburg, South Africa. After returning to the states in sixth grade, she continued to play throughout her school and college years.  She graduated from Montreat College in 2007 with a BS degree in Exercise Science/Med Tech. She played overseas from 2001 to 2006 while working with Athletes in Action in Costa Rica, Romania, and Nicaragua. Angela is active on the USAV Women's team and plays in tournaments across the east coast. In 2014 she attended the US National Woman's Olympic team tryout in Colorado,

Angela has been coaching developmental through college levels for almost two decades. She began her coaching career in 1999 as the head coach at North Henderson HS. She has been Assistant coach at Anderson University and Montreat College. She was head coach with WNC Volleyball Club for 10 seasons (2000-2010). She currently organizes and directs camps and clinics at local high schools and Brevard College. She is certified in Impact Coaching, Strength and Conditioning and is a Red Cross Instructor.
