Spring Training

Our Spring Training Volleyball Program is geared towards athletes of all ages. The overall focus of this program is on individual skill development within various aspects of the game. With the younger age groups, we will focus on the learning and acquisition of each skill (forearm pass, volley, serve, spike, etc) and will incorporate these skills into game situations. With the older age groups, time will also be devoted to individual skill development but will be within the context of higher-level volleyball. Position specialty, defensive and offensive formations, and strategy will also be emphasized with our older age groups.
