CAMP OBJECTIVES
The primary objective of our camp
is to provide a thorough and complete volleyball training program that
specifically meets the individual needs of each player whether she is an
advanced player, intermediate player or beginner. The campers will be grouped
according to age and ability. Drills and coaching techniques are geared to the
ability level of that group.
CAMP FORMAT
We
believe in individual attention. We have a 1:10 Coach-Camper Ratio with roving
supervisors monitoring each group of courts.
CAMP COUNSELORS
The day camp is conducted by the
coaching staff and players of Belmont Abbey College along with high school
coaches, who have been selected based not only on their knowledge of the game,
but more importantly, on their ability to relate to young developing
players.
TRAINING:
SETTING
This camp will provide beginner to
advanced setters a chance to improve, develop and challenge all aspects of
setting. With high repetition, the camp is guaranteed to provide an environment
to increase hand position awareness, footwork pattern efficiency, and overall
knowledge of the setting position through competitive team drills.
ATTACKING & BLOCKING
Campers will receive
swing training and detailed footwork instruction using a variety of offensive
tempos. The athletes will learn effective blocking techniques to better prepare
them for high level attacking.
SERVING & PASSING
This camp is designed to
improve on the fundamental and intermediate styles of passing and serving. We
focus on the foundation of platform and awareness to move to the ball as well as
teach a basic understanding to float and jump serving.
6 vs 6
Along with repetition drills and contests we strive to create a team
atmosphere for the campers. We do this by forming competitive team games to give
our campers a better insight about movement on the court. Leading up to the
final day, our campers should have built a solid foundation and mindset towards
multiple offensive and defensive schemes.
LECTURES:
TRAIN THE BRAIN
CVA demonstrates techniques that
athletes can use in the competitive situation to maintain control and optimize
their performance. These techniques allow the athlete to relax and to focus
attention in a positive manner on the task of preparing for and participating in
competition. Mental preparation is key to the athlete gaining the winning
edge.
MISSION FOR NUTRITION
We will show a variety of
fitness, sports nutrition topics and resources from organizations and institutes
that specialize in the sports medicine and exercise science research. We will
also explain how a balanced diet, energy levels, fluid levels and a pregame meal
planner contribute to peak sports performance.
FITNESS
We will provide athletes the understanding
of commitment to conditioning, strength training and being “physically fit” to
compete as their highest level.
RECRUITING
Imperative information will be
presented to help student athletes & their parents prepare themselves for
the college recruitment process.
