Here is an example of what some of the coaches and current owners of the AirCAT are saying...
"I use the AirCAT (aka Kitty) everyday in stations with my team. I can’t tell you how much Kitty is helping me in teaching technique to my setters. It is astounding what I am able to do, and everyone in the gym notices it. We use the Networks in our stations so that we don’t have to chase balls. It is so easy to fold up and move across the floor."
- Mick Haley, Head Women’s Volleyball Coach
USC
"I’ve been playing world class volleyball for almost 25 years. I’ve seen a lot of training devices but the AirCAT is the first one where I’ve thought, ‘I could really use that in my training.’ I could have used it at any time during my career. I think it is going to revolutionize volleyball training and that is why I endorse it so strongly."
- Karch Kiraly, Professional Beach Volleyball Player
3-time Olympic Gold Medallist, and Best volleyball Player of the 20th Century" in the best men’s team of the 20th century category by the Federation Internationale de Volleyball (FIVB)
"Every program in the country could benefit from the AirCAT training machine. It is valuable for all levels of play."
- Toshiaka Yoshida
Former Head Coach Women’s USA National Team
"Every coach wants to maximize the repetitions his team gets in practice. The AirCAT allows your team to do just that; to train and develop skills in the best possible environment. The equipment is easy to use, quiet and reliable. And your team will really enjoy using it in training."
- Douglas Beal
Head Coach – Former Head Coach Men’s USA National Team & Current CEO of USA Volleyball
"If you’re looking to improve your team or individual practice sessions and players’ skills, the AirCAT TEAM ™ is the answer. This versatile coaching aid brings reliability and consistency to the ball entry function. Using the AirCAT TEAM ™ is like having an extra coach in the gym."
- Dr. Mike Hebert, Head Women’s Volleyball Coach
University of Minnesota,
Previous Head Coach of the USA Pan American Games Team and USA World University Games Team, Former NCAA Coach of the Year, and President of the American Coaches Association
"We have found the AirCAT to be a valuable coaching tool, especially in the spring when NCAA rules limit the number of athletes we can have in the gym and again during the summer when coaches aren't allowed in the gym at all with their players. The AirCAT gives us another setter, another coach, and another opportunity to get better."
- Mary Wise, Head Women’s Volleyball Coach, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL
"At the University of Alabama, we have used the AirCAT throughout our entire training year. During the spring and summer months, we as college coaches are very limited with the time we are allowed to spend with our student-athletes. Our players were able to go into the gym on their own or with some of their teammates during these months and get quality passing, setting, and attacking repetitions utilizing the AirCAT to help improve their game. During our competitive season, the AirCAT was a daily part of our Defensive Specialist and Outside Hitter pre-practice passing progressions. We also found the AirCAT to be very helpful with our Coaches Clinics and Summer Camps. I highly recommend the use of the AirCAT for any high school, club, or college program."
- Judy Green, Head Women’s Volleyball Coach
University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, AL
"A setter with perfect, consistent location and a server with rapid-fire capabilities – minus shoulder over-use? Plus a remote control without a cumbersome cord to work around? I must be dreaming! The AirCAT’s technical benefits are unlimited and priceless."
- James Lee, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Waconia High School, Waconia, MN
"I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the AirCAT. It is even better than I thought it would be. I can finally have exact duplication repetition with my athletes. It is saving my shoulder and instead of exhausting myself hitting/tossing balls, I can focus on their skills from up close. I am watching them improve daily. I couldn’t be more pleased with the product."
- Clare Matasavage, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Coginchaug Regional High School, Durham, CT
"This is the best training tool in VB right now! The cost is definitely worth it! We fight over which team gets to use it! Every coach wants it every night!!!! No wear and/or tear on the volleyballs too! We did extensive research to find the best product and we are confident WE DID!"
- Dr. Meredith Van Horn D.C., Club Director
900 Volleyball, Grapevine, TX
"A+ on ease of use. From delivery truck to plugging it in and tossing balls – 45 min. We’ve been running it for summer camps and pre-season since it arrived."
- Peter Cosmiano, Head Women’s Volleyball Coach, Mississippi College, Clinton, MS
"The AirCAT is a fantastic piece of equipment. We initially became interested in the AirCAT because of a research project that we were working on studying the effects of Gatorade on volleyball performance during a simulated match. This simulated match involved scoring a variety of hitting, passing, digging, jumping and blocking tasks in??? That it would happen during the course of an average match. The AirCAT provided the CONSISTENCY we required in order to make this protocol the same for each research participant across all trials. If it is consistent enough for scientific research, it will be consistent enough for your practices!! We have continues to use the AirCAT in our practices as well as camps – the kids love it! The remote control option allows coaches to stand in positions that allow them to coach and provide feedback while still initiating balls into play. The AirCAT is vary flexible allowing coaches to simulate sets, passes, attacks and float serves with consistency of placement and tempo. My players are able to get into a rhythm when practicing skills, allowing them to focus on techniques without worrying about timing. I highly recommend the AirCAT as well as the wonderful people at Airborne Athletics."
- Becky Schmidt, Head Women’s Volleyball Coach
Hope College, Holland, MI
"We can set the AirCAT up to work on fundamentals with our beginning players and also challenge our advance players. Within a couple of weeks I have noticed not only an increase in performance with the players but also a desire with the athletes to want to work with the AirCAT and improve their skills."
- Kevin Donovan, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach, Battle Ground High School, Battle Ground, WA
"I am so happy with the AirCAT. By having a machine that holds 10 balls I don't have to be there to feed the machine, frees me up to be standing next to the players while running the drill. The AirCAT allows you to work individually with players without having the coach to either toss, set or serve balls."
- Kyle Yackley, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Bradford High School, Kenosha, WI
"It is like having a manager chipping and serving balls. It is very helpful with players wanting to get additional reps on their own as well. When our setter wants to get reps on her, she can come in and rep out. That’s why we bought the AirCAT. It helps give our athletes additional reps when we are not allowed by the NCAA rules. If the player wants to continue working on her skills, she is empowered!!"
- Erik Olson, Head Women’s Volleyball Coach
Central Michigan University, Mount Pleasant, MI
"We absolutely love using the AirCAT during our volleyball workouts and practices. The players have improved in many of their skills because of the consistency that it provides for them. I will be looking forward to implementing it into our daily routines in the fall. The players are looking forward to being able to use it this summer to help them with specific skills. I am still working on other ways to use it in practice."
- Vicki Adams, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Frankfort High School, Frankfort, KS
"The AirCAT has been a blessing because it is like having another coach. You set the machine to your needs and it provides accurate repetition practice for your players. Specifically in our program we are using it for passing (defensive specialist/back row passing) and it frees me up to work with hitters on the court. It makes the passers move their feet because since it is air controlled, the pass comes to the player a little differently each time. We also used it at our annual summer camp with younger players and passing. It can be used at any level – an incredible asset to the Greenbrier Volleyball program and early in the season already seeing the results."
- Debbie Born, Varsity Volleyball Coach
Greenbrier High School, Evans, GA
"We thoroughly enjoyed using our AirCAT machine this year. We used it in a variety of settings and to do many different things for us during the season. My players nicknamed our AirCAT –‘Lucy’ so I will probably refer to it as a her. We used AirCAT to make our defense dig hard driven balls; serve receive to work on passing; and as a station for my setters/hitters to work on their hitting. The versatility of the machine is wonderful and I really liked being able to use the remote or the timer to run drills. We used AirCAT at least twice a week to supplement our drills and to increase the intensity level of the drill, since I could control the remote and when the balls are fired out. Our season record was 43-1 this year as well as winning a 3rd straight 5A State Championship."
- Wendy L. Johnson, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach, Idaho Falls High School, Idaho Falls, ID
"I love it. I just wish I could afford another one. It really is a great tool to allow me the flexibility to move around and get close to the players when doing a drill. I can give them instruction right there instead of having to be confined to running the drill from the other side of the net. My kids love it! They really love the workout that the AirCAT can provide."
- Julie Riese, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Fond du Lac High School, Fond du Lac, WI
"The AirCAT has really given me a lot more flexibility to move around the gym and give feedback to my players during drill activities. It really has helped me to be able to give my players more as a coach. Outside of practices, it has been a great tool for working with individual players. They can work on passing or hitting a consistent ball every time, so they can really nail down their technique and not have to worry about where the ball is going to be."
- Matt Leichty, Head Volleyball Coach
Sheridan High School, Sheridan, OR
"We absolutely love our AirCAT. I have had 4 of my 5 contact days with the girls for the summer and we have used it every practice. I have also used it at open gym. The girls are impressed, as are their parents and other staff that have walked through the gym while we are using it."
- Jessica Rettler, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach, Tri-County High School, Plainfield, WI
"The AirCAT is very handy when you want to watch the drill to correct problems and coaches don’t need to spend time or energy driving balls over or being a glorified tosser. You can also have two drills going at once. We Love It."
- Leslie Edwards, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Sheboygan South High School, Sheboygan, WI
"The AirCAT is a great tool to help you with your training. I think my team will talk about it like, before and after we got the AirCAT, because it will have a big impact on how we train and how we play."
- Magnus Adalsteinsson, Coach
Tromso Volleyball, Norway
"I use the AirCAT a lot when I have positional practices. The AirCAT has had a favorable response from my serve receive. The AirCAT really has a tough float for high school students."
- Ryan Vermette, Phy-Ed Department
John Taylor Collegiate, Winnipeg, MB Canada
"We Call our AirCAT "Felix". I run a 3 line hitting drill where Felix tosses the ball to my setter and she sets all 3 hitting positions. I use Felix as a setter for our hitters to work on their approaches and angle of attacks…it works great for this because the sets are very consistent. I use it for serve receive practice especially with the younger high school players that don’t serve that accurately yet. Felix gets the ball over the net every time to the player working on their passing. Felix has been GREAT!"
- Kim Peters, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Adair-Casey High School, Adair, IA
"Thanks for the quick turnaround time from when the order was placed to the delivery date. It took 3 days! It took about a half hour to assemble. Our team uses the AirCAT for pass receive, serve receive, blocking, hitting and we can do stations with just a few girls working on passing. We have made a great investment. Thanks."
- Deb Becker, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Horace Mann High School, North Fond du Lac, WI
"I love setting up the AirCAT and let it put balls into play. Then, I can spend my time coaching players and working on their form, rather than hitting the balls to them from the other side of the court. The AirCAT gives my players many more opportunities to practice various aspects of the game in a limited amount of time. We love it. Sometimes I wish I had two!"
- Jeff Ellenbogen, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Alexander Dawson School, Lafayette, CO
"We love it. It makes something extra for the girls to do when they are waiting for their turn for a drill. It is consistent and tough."
- Liz Harris, Head Girls’Volleyball Coach
Atchison High School, Atchison, KS
"The AirCAT has been the best equipment addition to our program yet. It is very helpful in practice and even more helpful when we run individual session pre or post practice. It allows us to give our setters a break as we work on specifics with our hitters and it saves our shoulders when we are working a single serve receive passer. It is easy enough to use and as a result we allow our players to come in and use it any time on their own. This is only our first year with the AirCAT and at the end of the season we were still finding new ways to incorporate it! It is a quality product of great value. I highly recommend it!"
- Cora Thompson, Head Women’s Volleyball Coach
Tufts University Medford, MA
"We decided to go with the AirCAT because of 2 reasons. 1. The AirCAT is at a regular height and therefore launches the ball like a person would. 2. The consistency of the air technology release was appealing because with other systems, if the balls weren’t inflated exactly the same, you never knew what the result would be. Oh, and I guess the remote was a factor in the decision, too. It’s awesome!"
- Debi Downs, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Vallivue High School Caldwell, ID
"The AirCAT has been a great addition for our training with small groups. The use of the remote has been good because it allows me to instruct on each contact if needed. High levels of reps in a short amount of time, and we have not seen (so far) any ill effect on our balls. Only have used for a few months but so far – so good."
- Marci Jenkins, Head Women’s Volleyball Coach
Radford University Radford, VA
"I love the AirCAT and the simple fact that I don’t have to stop a drill to give instructions to my players. I can be right next to them and coach them as the drill is going, which is so helpful considering that I am the only coach. We can get in more repetitions in a shorter amount of time. I also love using the AirCAT to incorporate cardio training into our drills. I can run fast paced drills by setting the AirCAT to throw a ball every 3 -4 seconds."
- Kevin Hammond, Head Women’s Volleyball Coach
Davidson County Community College, Lexington, NC
"I gave been totally impressed with how easy it is to operate the AirCAT for a variety of different uses during our practices. However, what I like best is that myself or my assistants are now not having to toss balls for drill work and all of us have the opportunity to view the technical aspects of each individual player’s development. We use the AirCAT in every practice. This has been one of my favorite volleyball purchases to date."
- Dr. Bren Stevens, Head Women’s Volleyball Coach
University of Charleston, Charleston, WV
"I can set it with the timer and leave it to go work with other players. I just had try-outs, and it saved my arm. I had it hitting, setting, passing, and serving to the players. There is no damage to the balls. I ordered a machine that had spinning wheels on it and sent it back. It was very inconsistent. The AirCAT puts the ball in the same place every time. The AirCAT costs more, but it is worth it."
- James Locke, Head Jr. High Volleyball Coach
Annie Camp Jr. High, Jonesboro, AR
"What can I say! I love the AirCAT!! I feel I can truly teach /instruct my players while live balls are coming at them. My girls like that they can work individually or in small groups. I like that my shoulder sure feels good at the end of practice. Thanks AirCAT."
- Jackie Hall, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Uniontown High School, Uniontown, KS
"The AirCAT has allowed us to work individually with players, as well as in group situations. It also allows our players to work in small groups or by themselves on needed aspects of their game."
- Karen Dull, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
East Forsyth High School, Kernersville, NC
"The AirCAT has changed my practice all the way around. I was amazed by the number of repetitions each player can get in by using this machine instead of my arm!!! I use this machine to simulate down balls to the players during our defensive drills. I also use the machine to train our setters on playing free balls. Also, the machine is wonderful on setting our hitters so they can work on their approach and swing".
- Christina Crase, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Betsy Layne High School, Betsy Lane, KY
"In our short time as a high school program (4 years), we have won 3 conference championships, and ended up as one of the top rated programs in the state of Illinois. We have made AirCAT a necessary element of our training and as you can see, it has served us very well! You’ll never know what you did before you had one! Great work AirCAT!!!! We are forever a supporter"!!!!
- Kerri McCastland, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Plainfield North High School, Plainfield, IL
"We use the AirCAT for drills during practices for our setters and hitters. With this machine I can be anywhere in the gym and still operate the system. It is the best for maximizing the coach’s and trainer’s time. If anyone is interested in seeing the AirCAT, please stop by my sports center so I can show you what I am talking about. We used this machine to train 650 players this season and still had time to do other things! It is the best machine in the USA!"
- Kosmo Mobareki, Club Director
Metro South & Indy Select Volleyball Club Indianapolis, IN
"We use the AirCAT in almost every practice. It is great for us- with 15 players and only one assistant coach it is like a 3rd coach. When we have a scrimmage the 3 players not on the court can continue to practice instead of doing wall drills. We are able to get more repetitions in. I love it!"
- Lisa Roelke, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
River Valley High School, Spring Green, WI
"The AirCAT is very helpful in skills enhancement and in maximizing the coach’s time!"
- Robert O’Leary
California Volleyball Club Rancho Santa Fe, CA
"We use our AirCAT during summer open gyms and our hitting improved drastically!"
- Leigh Ann Back, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Lakeside High School, Hot Springs, AR
"The AirCAT is very useful. We use it during volleyball practice to allow our hitters to hit continuously. We also use it for our setters for the repetition drills and for free-ball activities."
- Cindy Koss, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Algoma High School, Algoma, WI
"We enjoy using the AirCAT. We use it to simulate a serve (for serve-receive patterns); handling a free ball; setting 5, 3, 4, 1, 2, 6, 7, 9; and for shooting it directly over the net so the players can work on blocking drills against a live ball."
- Mary M. Conway, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Crete Jr./Sr. High School, Crete, NE
"My players use the AirCAT during off-season training. They can roll the machine out and work by themselves or I can incorporate it with my drills for them. I have received excellent service. It is a great tool!"
- Terry Carlson, Head Women’s Volleyball Coach
Indian Hills Community College, Ottunwa, IA
"I used the AirCAT everyday during the 2000 High School Volleyball season. Our program had 3 coaches and 36 players. The AirCAT allowed us to break up in smaller groups so there was less standing around at practice and we were able to work with certain positions. I used the AirCAT to toss so I was able to move around and coach rather than being stuck by the ball cart. I also used it to feed setters and set hitters. It’s easy to move around and set up."
- Kay Aberle, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Selah High School, Selah, WA
"The Boys and Girls teams are finding many different ways to use the AirCAT everyday! We use the machine in our camps to provide as many ball touches as possible. It’s a Great Tool! It’s like having an assistant coach!"
- Stuart Kageta, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach – Del Oro High School & Club Director
Club Momentum Volleyball, Loomis, CA
"I bought the AirCAT for my husband because he plays 2-man beach volleyball two to three times a week. Since we live a distance from anyone, I am the only person he had to practice with. This machine is fantastic and was worth every penny I paid! Not only does he love it, but I am free!"
- Lynn White
Kamuela, Hawaii
"I’m a private business that rents gym time to volleyball teams. We also have camps/clinics, tournaments, leagues, and give individual instruction. Our main use of the AirCAT has been to Jr. and Sr. High volleyball teams in Ankeny. Ankeny HS girls team is ranked 1st in the state of Iowa for the 4A schools. They are also ranked nationally as well. The teams/individual players use the AirCAT mostly as a setter or back row passer. They have commented on how they like the consistency of the ball being placed so they can work specifically on kills or setting. The first time that any volleyball player sees what the AirCAT can do they are astonished! There’s a little twinkle in their eyes when the first ball comes out of the AirCAT is placed perfectly and they slam one home!! The AirCAT is a highly used training aid at our facility! Thanks!!"
- Bret Van De Pol, Owner
Sports University, Ankeny, IA
"The AirCAT is wonderful. It allows you to have an intense workout with just a few players. You have the freedom to coach and move around as your players are working."
- Laura Kozella, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Conway High School, Conway, AR
"The AirCAT is the "Perfect Passer" for our setters. To encourage jump setting at the net we set up the AirCAT to do just that. It helps us practice jump sets and "dumps" in a very short period of time which we can’t replicate any other way."
- Ken Zoromski, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Wausau East High School, Wausau, WI
"The machine brought a new enthusiasm into practice specifically for spiking. The kids can perfect their technique because of a consistent set and it frees me up as a coach to do other things."
- Margaret Spindler, Coach/ Athletic Director
Our Lady Star of the Sea, Grosse Pte. Woods, MI
"We have been very creative making new drills to incorporate ’Karch’ (our machine.) ‘Karch’ allows more reps, faster pace drills, more production."
- John Leonard, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Barbers Hill High School, Mont Belvieu, TX
"Our booster club purchased the AirCAT this spring and the team has been able to really put it to use this off-season. It has allowed us to work on every aspect of the game. I am constantly finding new drills to use with the AirCAT. I work with 24 – 30 girls, of various levels, by myself in the off-season and the AirCAT has allowed the girls to get many reps on what ever part of the game we want to work on. The Athletes love the challenges it presents."
- Mary Ketcher, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach & Physical Education/Outdoor Education
Lake Dallas High School, Lake Dallas, TX
"We just recently purchased the AIRCAT, but have already incorporated it into off season work. I had rotator cuff surgery in November so the AirCAT has been in-valuable, doing things I am unable to do at this time. The consistency that the AirCAT gives in sets is invaluable. We have also used the AIRCAT to run more consistent drills dealing with serve receive and passing. We can move the AIRCAT about the gym with ease. Having the remote control at my finger tips allows me to move about at practice and not be tied to a spot to run drills."
- Kathy Lage, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Manning High School, Manning, IA
"The AirCAT is a functional device for any volleyball program. It is great to use when you want your team to focus on repetition with any facet of the game. Both the timer and the remote control makes it easier for the coach to wander around the gym and analyze hitters, setters, passers, etc. with out having to toss balls, block, or hit themselves. I can’t say enough about the AirCAT!"
- Abby Goodlaxson, Head Girls’Volleyball Coach
Okoboji High School, Milford, IA
"The AirCAT gives the coach options on drills, a lot of repetition for hitting and serve receive. Practice runs well when the AirCAT can do a lot of the hitting, tossing, and setting that a coach has to do in practice."
- Amy Tyler, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Wagner Community School, Wagner, SD
"The AirCAT has helped us with our overhead passing skills. It has allowed us to focus on coaching rather than hitting/serving balls at our players. More instruction time is always beneficial. We’re seeing results!"
- Darren Schroeder, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Peabody-Burns High School, Peabody, KS
"The AirCAT allows us to be efficient with our time and specific in our skill development. The AirCAT staff earns an A+ in customer service – they are helpful and reliable."
- Christy Harkins, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Glacier High School, Kalispell, MT
"We only had the use of the AirCAT for about the last 3 or 4 weeks of practice – but the coaches already saw an improvement – specifically in the passing on our teams. It has allowed us to get in many more quality reps each day. The coaches have been able to focus on the players and their fundamentals instead of entering in balls for the drills. We look forward to having our players use it in the off season to improve all areas of their games – especially developing more types of consistent attacks and becoming a better passing team."
- Michelle Anderson, Head Girls’Volleyball Coach and Athletic Director
Spring Grove High School,Spring Grove, MN
"The AirCAT has added another volleyball station to improve skills. I use it as a passing station as well as using its setter capabilities to correct foot work in my hitters after practice. We won state last year (our 9th time) and my players are happy with the extra practice the AirCAT provides. Thanks for this high quality machine."
- Joe Grippo, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
The Morgan School, Clinton, CT
"We have used the AirCAT over the summer for lots of individual training. When using the AirCAT with the NetworKs for spiking, you can see the players' confidence build with each perfect set. We like to use the AirCAT for serve-receive at the end of practice. We have a goal of 20 balls passed into the cart and then we can leave. The nice thing about this is you can stand right beside each girl and give instructions without a missed serve."
- Dan Duenwald, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Clark High School, Clark, SD
"My players beg to use the AirCAT when they want to work one on one with our setter. It is my only assistant coach."
- Jean Musgjerd, Former Head Women’s Volleyball Coach & Current Co-Athletic Director
Rochester Community Technical College, Rochester, MN.
"The AirCAT provides a versatile ‘player’ that can perform whatever function needed during the off season when the number of girls may not be as strong. It easily adjusts to whatever task the coach needs to have performed. It is extremely user friendly, so that the girls can run the machine without any concerns or issues. It doesn’t create any extra wear on the balls, allowing for funds to be used for other necessary equipment. And, the AirCAT shows up for practice every day ready to do whatever the coach asks!! An excellent role model"
- Eric Fee, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Knoxville High School, Knoxville, IA
"It’s an awesome way to coach kids who are learning. The consistency provided by AirCAT allows you to coach and gets you away from tossing, serving, etc. balls. The tempo of the drill is controlled by the machine so drills are up tempo and provide extensive repetitions for young players."
- Karla Bronzynski, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Eldora-New Providence High School, Eldora, IA
"It is a great tool for many uses: serve-receive, hitting (consistent sets), all types of passing drills, blocking drills, defensive practice including digging & free balls. The remote control is awesome!"
- Bob Howey, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Lake Orion High School, Lake Orion, MI
"With no question, it’s useful. It positively expands players assurance in hitting with the number of repetitions."
- Lynn Ray Boren, Head Women’s Volleyball Coach
Gallaudet University, Washington, DC
"After only a few practices, the AirCAT has already been very valuable. The remote enables me to coach while drilling. It's easy to set up and use and does not damage the volleyballs."
- Patty Hill, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Morrilton High School, Morrilton, AR
"We are excited to use the AirCAT in the off season, when setter might not be around. The girls are very excited about the AirCAT and look forward to using it this fall."
- Connie Rasmussen, Head Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Humboldt High School, Humboldt, IA
"We love the AirCAT; we use it in every practice. The JV team, I coach uses it and then our Varsity team incorporates it in their drills. Repetition helps build better players. Their favorite thing is the spiking drills with the AirCAT, they don’t want to stop. It is so wonderful that I don’t have to throw balls for them. The AirCAT is so accurate again and again."
- Jill Cox, JV Girls’ Volleyball Coach
Foundation Academy Winter Garden, FL
"Having just received the AirCAT, we are coming up with more uses than we even thought before. The AirCAT is great for one on one training as you can be with the player instructing and with the use of the remote generate the ball when needed. The AirCAT is a great tool".
- Ron Kordes
Kentucky Indiana Volleyball Academy Louisville, KY
"AirCAT Rocks! We use it during the season to enhance drills and vary speeds/techniques. The girls use it for hitting practice and we use it for skills videos for colleges. The guys enjoy it because it’s so versatile and helps develop timing. Plus, with the remote, you can always catch them off-guard!"
