FEATURING
This College Coaches Showcase Camp women’s volleyball event will feature one session, in the Afternoon. The Afternoon Session will run from 11:45 AM to 2:45 PM.
The Discussion on College Athletics will be provided electronically to registrants before the camp or just after. Many parents and players consider this segment alone to be worth the price of admission. Topics like, NCAA rules, the NCAA Eligibility Center, the importance of grades and what coaches look for will be covered.
ALL PLAYERS WILL RECEIVE
- Instruction from all coaches attending the event.
- Opportunities to ask questions and get to know the college coaches.
- Position specific training and small group instruction.
- A virtual discussion about the NCAA rules, and regulations.
- All campers will be numbered so the coaches can identify each player.
EVENTS WILL NOT EXCEED AN 8:1 COACH-TO-PLAYER RATIO
Each segment of camp will consist of skill training and instruction. Players will have the opportunity to work with the college coaches in their specific position, as well as in a competitive environment. Players will be taken through a series of drills to work on various position specific skills, including serving, setting, hitting & blocking, passing & defending.
It is very important to know that each session has a limited enrollment. We aim for a player-to-coach ratio that will not exceed 8:1. This ensures that the coaches can spend quality time with all players attending and are not overwhelmed with large camp numbers. This also ensures that prospects will have time to interact with the coaches and learn from them in a small group setting.
THE COLLEGE COACHES AT THE EVENTS ARE ON THE COURT ALL DAY.
JUST LIKE THEY ARE FOR THEIR OWN PRACTICES AND GAMES.
Each player will receive verbal feedback from the different levels of college volleyball represented at the camp. Coaches will evaluate each player based on their experiences at their level of college volleyball and give feedback when appropriate. This will allow each participating volleyball player the opportunity to get a much clearer idea of where their skills may fit at the college level. Because we want full interaction between coaches and players, we do not provide written evaluations. We ask our staff to be fully engaged in the teaching process and not be lost in a form. For this reason, we highly encourage players to ask questions of the staff and obtain any and all information they would like to know.
THIS IS A CAMP AND A SHOWCASE:
Players need the opportunity to showcase their skills to coaches. Coaches need the opportunity to see how players respond to instruction, just like they do with their own college athletes. That one-on-one and small group instruction is designed to be just like a college practice, an environment the college coaches thrive in. Players should be prepared to receive immediate feedback and work with coaches to improve their game.
COLLEGE COACHES SHOWCASE CAMPS ARE RUN BY CURRENT COLLEGE COACHES
DISCUSSION ON COLLEGE ATHLETICS
There are many myths and misunderstandings about participating in college athletics. Topics like, academic requirements, NCAA rules, the NCAA Eligibility Center, the importance of academic and athletic work ethic, and what coaches look for will be covered.
