Athletes will train 1x a week. During weeks 1 through 3 athletes will be grouped by skill and age, then train 1 hour and 15 minutes. The final 30 minutes the groups will use competitive drills. Competition will be used as a compliment to the training that all athletes received earlier in practice. Weeks 4 through 6 the groups will train for an hour and then be blended onto teams for games and scrimmage matches.
Athletes will be grouped by age and ability
4th, 5th and 6th Grade - Beginner (Co-Ed) Players at this age level begin to develop and build the foundational skills for volleyball. We will focus and prioritize underhand passing, setting, attack and overhand serving. We want to provide all athletes with high-level technical instruction along with high quality repetition. Competition will be formatted in a 4 v 4 or 6 v 6 setting to allow players to learn the fundamentals of the game, movement skills, and to play every position. We want all players to be well-versed in each skill and to avoid any early specialization.
5th and 6th Grade - Experienced (Co-Ed) We want to implement repetitive skill training at this age level to help reinforce and develop muscle memory. We want all athletes to be able to execute and repeat skills at a high level. Competition will be formatted in a 4 v 4 or 6 v 6 setting depending on the skill level of the group and to allow players to work on the mastery of their skill sets.
7th through 9th Grade - Beginner (Co-Ed) Players will be taught the foundational skills for volleyball. We will focus and prioritize underhand passing, setting, attack and overhand serving. We want to provide all athletes with high-level technical instruction along with high quality repetition. Competition will be formatted in a 4 v 4 or 6 v 6 setting to allow players to learn the fundamentals of the game, movement skills, and to play every position. We want all players to be well-versed in each skill, but may have them focus on a skill or position best suited to their athleticism or grasp of the particular concepts.
7th through 9th Grade - Experienced (Girls) Our goal is to continue teaching and training the technical consistency and execution of all skills in practice and game scenarios. Competition will be formatted in a 6 v 6 setting to allow players to work on execution of their skills and improving their tactical volleyball knowledge.
