Focused on skills
I wouldn't recommend it to friends unless they knew it was strictly about skills. Most of my friends are like me in that they value being part of a team.
Learned new skills
It was my favorite volleyball camp. They taught me so many things new and how to improve the stuff I already knew. They made the camp fun. They gave us a lot of time to practice each skill.
Perfect instruction
I highly recommend this camp! Staff is very friendly and helpful. Perfect instruction for my beginner level daughter. Also, it is nice for the beginner students to see the more "advanced" in action for inspiration!

Fun and challenging
I would recommend this camp to other people because it was fun and challenging but at the same time the coaches worked us hard and pushed us to do our best.
