About

ST7 Volleyball Training Center is the lifelong vision of former professional volleyball player Coach Samuel Torres and his wife. With over 20 years of coaching experience across all levels and age divisions, Coach Sammy has dedicated his career to developing athletes who go on to successfully compete at the high school, collegiate, and professional level.

For the past 12 years, the couple has successfully operated a competitive volleyball club in Lake County, Florida, earning a strong reputation for excellence in athlete development. Now, they are shifting their focus from running club teams to creating a premier training hub where athletes of all ages and skill levels from any school or club can elevate their game.

Named after Coach Sammy’s initials and jersey number, ST7 is more than a training facility; it is a place where potential meets performance. With a holistic approach that emphasizes physical, mental, and lifestyle development, ST7 is grounded in the values of discipline, respect, and the belief that one should “train a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not turn from it.” Proverbs 22:6

Whether you’re new to volleyball or aiming for the next level, ST7 is where you can train with purpose - and play anywhere.

ST7 Volleyball Training Center is dedicated to developing athletes of all ages and levels-focusing on elite training, not club teams so you can train here and play anywhere.
