This camp is a friendly introduction to the sport of volleyball for those youngsters interested in learning how to play. Camp will focus on the basics such as how to rotate through the positions, the names of the positions and the skills as well as how to perform the basic skills such as passing, setting and hitting. In Session 2 there will also be focus on serving. The main goal of this camp is to allow the campers to experience the sport of volleyball while having as much fun as possible! Camp is run by WCS Head Varsity Volleyball Coach Destiny Clark. The schedule will be the same for both days.

Volleyball Position Camps Open to 7th – 12th graders JUNE 19th – 21st $25/session
At these one-day camps the camper will receive specific skill instruction, evaluation and practice for the chosen position.

This is a great opportunity to try new positions and get detailed, hands-on instruction. Come to just one or come to all three!
*Those attending the setting camp will be asked to attend the hitting camp the following day but do NOT have to pay a second time (However, they will need to understand that the attention of the coaches will be on the hitters during that session).
