Melissa Britten returns to OK Charge this year as our Assistant South Director and 15UA Charge East Assistant Coach. She has coached club volleyball in the OKC Metro for 14 years, and has coached ages 11-17.

Melissa grew up in the Air Force, and later married Cal who made the Air Force a career.  Her military travels had her living in the US, England, Japan, Spain and Germany.  A defensive specialist while attending Zaragoza American High School in Spain, she continued on that path while playing for the 86^th Services Squadron in Ramstein, Germany.  Her husband received orders to Nellis AFB, Las Vegas, and while there she played on a 4-man sand team.

Then came the final move for her and her family……Moore, OK, where they made the decision for her husband to retire from the Air Force after 20 years of service. They have one daughter who played volleyball at Independence CC and Missouri Valley College, is a former Charge player and now is the assistant coach for 15UA Charge East.
