JAX SKYLINE SPORTS

Jacksonville Skyline Juniors is a youth volleyball club serving the greater Jacksonville area. Our staff is led by Hugh and Stephanie Hernesman, who have a combined 40 years of college coaching experience across all levels.

 

Known for taking on major rebuilding projects, Hugh and Stephanie have worked under some of the best volleyball coaches- including four-time AVCA National Coach of the Year Kris Russell, current Florida Gators Associate Head Coach Dave Boos and former USA National Team Assistant Coach and Lead Trainer Erikka Gulbranson. Using this knowledge and building upon what they learned, the Hernesman’s were able to successfully run their own college programs for half of their careers.

​

Additionally, Hugh and Stephanie have strong experience working with young athletes. They’ve started their own juniors club from scratch and built it up to over 120 athletes in just three years in the isolated city of Abilene, TX. They both worked for Milwaukee Sting Volleyball Club coaching their top 15’s team- coaching them to a 2nd Place finish in the Open Division of USA Volleyball’s Junior National Championship in 2002. Hugh and Stephanie have over 50 years of combined youth camp and clinic experience- including 5 years of working with the USA Volleyball High Performance program in various roles and regions.
