Natasha Cook
Coach
Atlanta Performance Volleyball Club (2020-present)
Believe it or not, I began playing volleyball in the 9th grade as a middle blocker. With basketball being my main sport, I was exceptionally good at volleyball, where I fell in love with the sport and took it to the next level. After high school I received a full athletic scholarship to play for the mighty Tigers of Hiawassee College in Madisonville, TN for both basketball and volleyball. Although I’m retired from playing, my passion for winning is still there. I also teach Yoga full-time as an instructor to stay active. My love for Volleyball has brought me here to coach and teach my daughters the game I grew to love. I look forward to a successful season.

Dominique Austin
Coach
Atlanta Performance Volleyball Club (2020-present)
Dominique started coaching volleyball as an intern coach at Albany State University. She coached training camps for ages 13-18 at Tsunami Volleyball Club before stepping into her current role as a Head Coach with APVB.
Dominque stared her athletic career in middle school. She played at Westlake High School and Atlanta Boom Volleyball Club. She received a scholarship to play at Albany State University for her collegiate career as a libero/defensive specialist. Dominique received her Bachelors degree in Health and Human Performance. She works as a CMA in the healthcare industry.
Albany State University volleyball team had successes of winning East Side Division Champions during her four years as an athlete. Dominique ended her career as a team captain and finished as East Side Champions and runner-up in the SIAC Conference.
Dominique’s coaching philosophy is, “If you have knowledge, pass it on to those that don’t. Playing sports builds character and confidence. It prepares you to withstand any hardships that will come into your life. My goal is to instill perserverence, resilience, determination, and character into athletes through the game of volleyball. You are only a failure when you quit.”
