Atef Dosse Head Shot

Atef Dosse

One of the newest coaches in the CSI ranks, Dosse took over the program shortly before the 2011 campaign, and led the squad to a 4-18 initial season, improving on that mark in 2012.  Making his first entry into the collegiate coaching ranks, Dosse bring a vast wealth of experience as a former professional volleyball player and youth and high school coach.
A former professional volleyball player in his hometown of Alexandria, Egypt, Dosse was a member of the Smoha Sports Club from 1980-96.  He still participates in high-level volleyball sports clubs locally as well, although his primary focus has shifted to coaching.  Dosse spent two years as a youth coach and a physical education instructor in Egypt before moving to the United States in 1998. 
Once in the U.S., Dosse became a member of Franklin D. Roosevelt High School in Brooklyn, New York, substitute teaching in both mathematics and physical education.  In 1999, when the school’s fledging volleyball program needed a coach, Dosse answered the call, guiding the team for the next four years, turning around a program that went from only a single PSAL win when he took over, to a team that sported only a single blemish two years later.
While doubling as a volleyball coach, he also coached the FDR boys soccer program for two years in 2000-01.  He currently is a licensed real estate broker with Vitale Sunshine Realty and manages the vast fitness center at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in Manhattan.
