Heidi Yohe, originally from Washington State started playing club volleyball at the age of 10, when her older sister let her borrow her knee pads and told her, "Coaches don't care if you are the best, they want to see you working hard and being a good teammate, call every ball and have fun!"

She applied this advice and became a talented Outside Hitter on varsity teams and highly competitive travel club programs. Eventually, she found her collegiate volleyball career at Springfield College in Massachusetts, where past alumni invented the game of “Mintonette”, which later changed its name to Volleyball. She has a deep understanding of the rich history of the sport and a true passion for the game and the people who play it. 
 

Heidi was awarded New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference Rookie of the Year and First Team honors, Athlete of the Week multiple weeks, and voted Most Valuable player by her coaches and peers. Her senior year, Heidi lead her team to a conference title as the libero and ace leader. She still holds the school record for serve reception percentage and is third for career digs per game. 

At Springfield College, she studied Youth Development and Recreational Leadership.  She has always had a passion for working with young people to ensure they are healthy both mentally and physically. She won the prestigious Senior of the Year award for her efforts on the court, in the classroom and working as a camp director for inner-city youth. 

Heidi started coaching while playing collegiality. She led her first team ever to a regional title and earned a bid to the Junior National Tournament when she was just 20 years old. After that, she was hooked and has been dedicated to being a constant student of the game, while teaching young women the skills and life lessons that come with it.

While not Coaching, Heidi loves all things family and adventure. She lives in Austin, TX with her partner and daughter. She enjoys camping, swimming, rock climbing, SUP boarding, yoga, and hiking. Heidi works for Keller Williams Realty as the Buyers Specialist for The Bara Team, helping people in her community gain sustainable wealth by becoming homeowners.
