Hi! My name is Daphne and I am a coach here at Core Academy. I am from Las Vegas, Nevada and have lived in Billings since 2020. I am finishing my degree in Biology at Rocky Mountain College. I played volleyball for 13 years. All the way from recreation league to college. Volleyball is my passion and I cannot wait to spread the love of this amazing sport all around this wonderful community."

We highly recommend Coach Daphne for our undersized hitters (She played outside hitter at 5'7!) and boys volleyball players!

My name is Daisy Fisher and I have been playing or coaching Volleyball for the past 10 years. I love the game, coaching, and teaching, so Core is a great fit for me. I am willing to work with all ages and skill levels to help players excel and reach their goals!

Daisy played for Rocky Mountain College for 3 years as a middle blocker.

Daisy is great for all younger athletes of all positions!

My name is Tiffany Fuhrmann. I have been playing volleyball for 10 years, two of those years being collegiate experience at Rocky Mountain College. I mainly played middle blocker during my volleyball career but also have experience as a pin hitter and in the back row. I have helped coach camps for about 3 years and love helping players develop and fine tune their skills in all positions. I can't wait to teach others all that I've learned over the years!

I have been in and around volleyball since I was 4-years-old, and my passion for it has never wavered in the last two decades. I am Senior High alumni, part of the 2018 graduating class. At Senior, I was a part of two state championship teams. After high school, I played at Carroll College. I have been coaching since I was 17 for various camps/clinics in the Billings and surrounding areas, as well as Montana Juniors Volleyball Club. I have played all positions, from Middle to Outside to Setter to Libero; and being well-rounded means I have confidence in coaching each area of volleyball. Today, I coach at Senior High and Montana Juniors Volleyball Club. I am very excited to be a part of Core and extend the possibility of getting better to anybody, any time!"

Coach Kelsey is currently taking 4-12th graders of any position for lessons!
