2021 Fall Youth Clinic (9-14 yrs old), MONDAYS ONLY
Monday, August 16, 2021 - Monday, September 27, 2021
from 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm
Every Monday 5:00-7:00pm (SKIPS LABOR DAY Monday)
The Fall Youth clinic is designed with beginners and intermediates in mind - recommended for ages 9-14, with no experience necessary.
This program is our Monday-only option, for those with Wednesday conflicts - if possible, we prefer that you register for our clinic that runs on both Mondays and Wednesdays.
We group participants according to age and/or skill level during the first week. We then adjust participants to the appropriate groups depending on how they progress each week. The group they will work with may vary from week to week. We welcome 9th graders (or 14's eligible participants) who do not have club experience but desire to make their high school Freshman or JV teams. Our instructional clinics are designed with beginners and intermediates in mind. Intermediates can still benefit from repetitions through skill progressions and technique adjustments. We recommend our summer camps or classes offered at VolleyPerformance for high school players seeking a more intense training regimen at a higher level.
Part of A5's success is our coaching methods and our philosophy. We believe in technique progressions and high repetitions. We insist on doing each skill repetition the correct way every time. Everyone, regardless of skill level, will start off with core drills that emphasize the basic fundamental skills of volleyball. Each week, we focus on one particular skill set, then build upon it each session. We end each training session with competitive game play. Towards the end of the program, participants compete against each other in different competitive formats.
10 & Under - We use a lighter ball, smaller court segments and lower nets. The program's focal point is fun and enjoyment; at the same time developing agility, hand eye coordination, body movement and ball control work. Team play is incorporated with motor learning and skill development. Ideal for young beginners.
11-12 Years Old - We continue to develop agility, hand eye coordination and court movement. More game play situations are introduced. This is a great way to hone skills or prepare for school or 12 & under club tryouts.
12-14 Years Old - For those who want to keep their skills sharp, cannot commit to playing club volleyball or just want additional training. The first portion of each session will cover instruction-based drills then progress to competitive play where athletes will be divided into teams. Competitive game play situations are the norm and rotations are introduced.
