The Comox Valley Volleyball Camp provides athletes with an excellent opportunity to play, improve, and excel at the sport.
Both the December and summer camps are the longest-running volleyball camps running in the North Island.
The upcoming camp will be held at Highland School on Dec. 16-17.
鈥淚t is really exciting to offer this two-day camp in December. My passion is coaching young athletes, seeing them improve their skills, and have fun while doing it,鈥� said camp co-ordinator, Brian Stevens.
There are two sessions of the camp available to accommodate a wide range of ages and skill levels. The Youth Session will run from 9 a.m. to noon. The Elite Session will run from 1-4 p.m.
Both sessions will focus on technical skill development, game play knowledge, tons of touches with the ball, and, of course, fun. The Elite session will also have a strong focus on position-specific play and game strategy components.
Stevens has five years of CIS (university) playing experience, five years of coaching Team BC (including Canada Games), assistant coaching at Camosun College, many years of club and high school coaching, and many years of individual athlete training/development.
There will be a strong collection of coaches facilitating the camp who are from the Comox Valley. Both current and former university athletes will be providing their expertise and enthusiasm at the camp.
鈥淎ll coaches at the camp are excellent athletes and love working with young athletes,鈥� said Stevens. 鈥淭hey all really enjoy coaching and interacting with the campers.鈥�
