The Development Camps will provide instruction on fundamental techniques for all components of volleyball. Skills that we will be concentrating on for development will include forearm pass, overhead set, serve, block, spike, individual defence and team offence and defence. Campers will be instructed by our Athlete Instructors in a fun and productive environment. Every Friday the campers will get the opportunity to utilize their new skill sets in our Friday Game Series.
