Some Points about the academy

  • The Volleyball Elite Academy has grown by word of mouth and through a developed digital media advertising campaign.   Word of mouth is still the king of advertising so if you know of a young volleyball player (grade 4-7) or basketball player (grade 6-12) tell them about the academy and help us grow.
  • The academies are only as good as their coaches so we are always seeking good mature coaches who have worked with the targeted age group of the academies, again if you know of some talented coach let them know about us.
  • Suggestions and comments are always welcome and we will continue to take them seriously as we continue to grow.  We will make mistakes but will always attempt to grow from them.
  • Register early for sessions as we did have to turn interested people away due to a large number of people attempting to register for the volleyball sessions. 
  • Participants of all skill levels and gender can come to the same sessions as each will take something different away as they will all be at different skill levels.
  • We do not run or recruit players for teams and will not be recruiting athletes to play for the Elite academy.  (Beach volleyball has a unique setup as it trains doubles teams to play in tournaments but the teams are not built by the academy)
  • We try to stay away from the politics of sports, tryouts and formal play situations and more strive to put the fun back into skill training and the game.
  • Our goal is to pay coaches, cover gym costs and administration costs to run the academy and offer the cheapest sessions possible.  Suggestions and comments to continue to strive towards this goal are always welcome.
