NIKE VOLLEYBALL CAMP FAQ
For general questions about our volleyball camps please see our FAQ page.
TEAM DISCOUNT
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.
Camp Questions & Answers
Can I sign up for more than 1 session/program?
Absolutely! Campers are encouraged to attend multiple sessions. Each program delivers something unique to help players excel in all areas of the game. Many campers will attend more than one session to further refine their skills, compete against new players, or choose a session with a different program focus.

Thank you! See you next summer!
August 4, 2019: The best volleyball camp in CT! SHU coaches are awesome and challenge you to work hard on your skills to reach your potential. My daughter enjoyed both the Position Specialty and the Advanced sessions. Bonus- making friendships with other campers from around the country and getting tips and encouragement from SHU’s Division 1 volleyball players, who are great role modes for developing players. My daughter feels super prepared and more confident entering high school tryouts, very enthusiastic about continuing to improve new skills she learned at camp (jump serve and slides especially) and left with even more love for the game.

She loved it so much
July 16, 2019: There were so many highlights! The individualized attention given to Carli (and each camper) was incredible and an absolute high point of her time there.

Camp is terrific!
August 2, 2017: Sacred Heart is a great facility, very easy to reach from Manhattan -- the camp is very challenging. My daughter plays on a travel team and starts for her school's JV team -- she learns a lot each summer. The facility is great -- the dorms are beautiful, clean, and my daughter says the food is great. She has gone two years in a row. Both Nathalie and I think the camp is terrific -- she is happy being in a challenging environment and not being the best person on the team, perhaps because we have always taught her that you don't want to be the best person on the court -- that's not how you improve. She got a lot of play time because she was the only middle on her team -- that was a bonus. She is still growing and improving her skills at this camp, which is what any parent would want. Thank you!
— Donna C. Parent

Great environment!
August 2, 2017: Kirra made many new friends and had fun! (Most of the time). Almost all of the coaches were friendly and engaging. She loved Bruna and Eduardo! There was lots of energy in the gym and made for a great environment. Kirra said the food was really good. She has a love for the game and wants to continue to play as much as she can. She saw what a great experience the older girls were having with their main coach and would love to give this camp another chance.

Great camp
Instruction was very hands on and motivational. They told you what you were doing wrong but with a positive outlook on what you could do to be better. Having the players as coaches made it a lot better because those girls used to be in the exact position we were in. Overall, just a great camp.
