DIRECTOR'S NOTE TO CAMPERS

Getting to connect with today's youth in this sport is one of my favorite parts of the year! It's a chance to give back to the volleyball community and share my knowledge of the sport to assist in the growth of our area. We are excited to work with diligent, passionate, and coachable athletes whose goal is to improve upon their skillset while playing the game they love. I am a big believer in creating a hard-working, high energy and positive environment to yield the best results for progress in our athletes, and cannot wait to implement this at camp this year! - Amanda Alayon-Wilkins

TEAM/GROUP DISCOUNTS

If you have a group of eight or more campers registering for the same camp, each camper is eligible for a discount. Please have someone contact the US Sports Camps office at 1-800-645-3226 with the names of each camper in the group and we will create a unique discount code for your group. Campers may then register individually through the website at their convenience and apply the offer code during check out. *Discount amount varies by program. Please call for details.

SCHOLARSHIPS

We cannot offer scholarships due to NCAA regulations. Our affiliation with NCAA coaches and schools puts us in a position where any scholarship money can be seen as an inducement to a future collegiate athlete. This puts our coaches and our host universities in jeopardy of damaging their status with the NCAA and incurring penalties at the hands of their organizing body.

Camps are open to any and all entrants, limited only by number, age, grade level and/or gender.
