Halfway through Summer

 

Halfway through Summer

Feature the star of your collection first.

Summer is always a hard time to run a camp as many people go on vacations. But after COVID, it is even more critical for families to get together.   This has resulted in some athletes missing some of the beach training for vacation.  To make up for some of these missed training opportunities we are going to try something new for the last two weeks of training.

You can train for up to 20 hours!

For the last two weeks of beach training, the athletes can attend all the sessions. (20 hours)  At the very least, the session in which they are registered. (4 hours)  This flexibility will allow the athletes 4 hours a week or up to 20 hours a week of training.
The sessions occur from 2-8 pm on Monday and Wednesday and 4-8 pm on Tuesday and Thursday.  That is 20 hours of training, and an athlete can attend all 20 hours or as many hours as they would like for each of the next two weeks.  The last Saskatoon Tournament is happening on August 7-8th, and Provincials is on August 21-22.  The open training for the next two weeks will allow the athletes to make sure they are well prepared for these two events.  Hope to see all the athletes.

The Making the Cut Camps have all been condensed down into a single week rather than the original two weeks of camp.  If you have registered for any one of the four camps, make sure you know the date and time changes.  Let the academy know if the time changes work for you or not. If not, we will issue a full refund and our apology for the necessary changes. 
The Making the Cut Camps are as follows now.
August 23-26
Elementary school team athletes camp – Grade 6-8
Sessions -  8-10 am, 12-2 pm and 4-6 pm
Junior High Schoo Athletes camp -  Grade 9-10
Sessions -  8-10 am, 12-2 pm and 4-6 pm
Rookie Senior High School Athletes camp – Grade 10-11
Sessions -  10-12 pm, 2-4 pm and 6-8 pm
Returning Senior High School Athletes camp – Grade 11-12
Sessions -  10-12 am, 2-4 pm and 6-8 pm
The number of athletes in each of the four camps has been divided in half. If you plan to attend, you might want to register soon as some of the sessions are almost filled already.

Some sessions are almost full


The Making the Cut Camps are as follows now.  Feel free to register in the session in which you would be the most challenged.  Grade 8 athletes who have played one or two years of club volleyball should register in the Junior High School Sessions but are welcome to remain in the Elementary sessions if that is more comfortable for them.  Grade 9 should not register in anything other than the Elementary and Junior High School Sessions.  Grade 10 athletes can register in Junior or Senior sessions.  If the athlete has planned on trying out for the senior team at their school then they should not be in the Junior sessions.  Grade 11-12 should only register in the high school sessions. 
The placement of the athletes should be a decision made by the parents and not the academy staff.  It is not good for an athlete to always play up a level as they never learn how to lead and be the best in their group.  Many very talented athletes get pushed up in age brackets for club and do not get that opportunity to learn to make others around them better and learn how to be a leader.  It is good for an athlete's development to be the best on their team or in their group.  It builds confidence.
