Nike Volleyball Camps adds new location at Transylvania University
It was recently announced by Nike Volleyball Camps that a new location would be added at Transylvania University in Lexington, Kentucky for the upcoming summer. The Lexington volleyball camp will provide more athletes an opportunity to train in a fun and competitive environment with a collegiate staff. Players attending the Nike Volleyball Camp at Transylvania University will be able to choose from three different programs, All Skills, Serving, and Position Specialty. The variety of programs are offered and designed to help campers receive a comprehensive volleyball experience.
Directing these programs is Transylvania University Head Volleyball Coach, Amy Barmore, who recently finished her second season as head coach with the Pioneers. She has been with the team for six years, serving her first four years as an assistant coach. During her first season leading the program, Barmore took the Pioneers to their first-ever appearance in the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference championship. Campers attending the camp will learn under elite coaching and improve their game.
“We are thrilled to have a coach like Amy join the Nike Volleyball Camps family,” states Siera Love, Vice President of Nike Volleyball Camps. “Her high intensity and drive to help players improve in the sport they love are what will make this new camp great.”
All of the new programs at the Kentucky volleyball camp is available to girls, ages 8-18, of all ability levels. During the All Skills camp, players will experience various drills that work on all aspects of the sport. In small groups, the Pioneers volleyball staff will help guide the campers through training sessions and provide them with feedback on how to improve.
The half-day Serving Clinic is designed to focus solely on serving skill development. Campers will be evaluated to implement the best serving strategy for their skill level. During the Position Specialty program, campers will get to work on their set position for the duration of the clinic and receive specialized training on the latest techniques used by collegiate level players.
Players, coaches, and parents interested in camps can visit Nike Volleyball Camps or call 1-800-645-3226.
