July 22, 23, 24, 25

6:00 PM - 8:30 PM

Garrison Forest School

Rising 6th - 12th

Cost: $225

The MVA summer camp will develop athlete's fundamentals (passing, serving, attacking, blocking, setting, defense) in a fun and competitive environment.  Campers will be developed and taught using Gold Medal Squared methods, which are currently being used at the National Team level.

The camp will include skill progression drills, small sided games and 6v6 competitions with our knowledgeable coaching staff and former athletes.  Coaches will be able to provide 1 on 1 feedback to all athletes during drills and game play.  Coaches will provide drills/games at the appropriate level to allow for the best experience for our campers.

Campers will be grouped by age, volleyball experience and ability to ensure all athletes are developed properly throughout the camp.

MVA's popular summer skills series returns this year better than ever!  Whether you're interested in learning a new skill or looking to further develop, this camp is for everyone!  Each hour and a half session will lead athletes through individual, partner and small group drills designed to maximize reps.  For each drill, our experienced coaches will prove "look fors" before the drill and feedback during.  Athletes will be separated by age and ability level to help enhance the experience for all athletes.

Session 1:                                                   Ball Control                                                     July 20th & August 3rd                                                       9:00 - 10:30 AM

Campers of all ability levels will focus on passing mechanics, footwork, serve-receive concepts, and court positioning.   Drill progressions develop an athlete’s ability to read and defend various types of touches in order to help their team transition into offense.

Session 2:                                          Serve/Serve Receive                                           July 20th & August 3rd                                           10:45 AM - 12:15 PM

Campers of all ability levels will focus on arm-swing mechanics, hand contact, footwork, and how to understand the relationship between velocity and accuracy.  Our clinic develops an athlete’s ability to serve with variety and precision.  Athletes will have an opportunity to receive various serves while exploring the different roles and responsibilities in serve receive.

Session 3:                                          Individual Defense                                               July 20th & August 3rd                                                        12:30 - 2:00 PM

Campers of all ability levels will focus on passing mechanics, footwork, various defensive moves, footwork patterns and court positioning. Our drill progression develops an athlete’s ability to read offensive players and create opportunities to get touches on a variety of attacks.

Session 4:                                          Attacking/Blocking                                              July 21st & August 4th                                                       9:00 - 10:30 AM

Campers of all ability levels will focus on attacking and blocking mechanics, footwork patterns for various offensive situations and expand their "hitter's toolbox" along the net.  The drill progression will develop an athlete’s ability to be dynamic and consistent attackers.  Blockers will have the opportunity to practice their blocking moves against live hitters.

Session 5:                                          Serve/Serve Receive                                           July 21st & August 4th                                            10:45 AM - 12:15 PM

Campers of all ability levels will focus on arm-swing mechanics, hand contact, footwork, and how to understand the relationship between velocity and accuracy.  Our clinic develops an athlete’s ability to serve with variety and precision.  Athletes will have an opportunity to receive various serves while exploring the different roles and responsibilities in serve receive.

Session 6:                                         Setting/Attacking                                                    July 21st & August 4th                                                       12:30 - 2:00 PM

Campers of all ability levels will focus on setting techniques, footwork, and specialized movement patterns that are expected setters in various situations.  During the attacking portion, athletes will focus on arm-swing mechanics, footwork patterns for different offensive situations, and expanding their "hitter's toolbox".  The drill progression develops an athlete’s ability to be adaptable, repeatable and deceptive.  This camp is a great way to develop tools to improve their hitter/setter relationship.
