To participate, athletes must schedule spares in the afternoon, take a cyber school class, and manage their credit count to include this program. This two-month program may be extended if there is enough interest and positive feedback. Previously, this academy has helped many athletes achieve their volleyball goals, and we aim to replicate this success with a new group of talented players. Register Now!

Traditionally, our camps have mixed boys and girls, but this year we separated them to encourage more boys to join. However, we did not receive enough interest from boys, limiting the number of girls we could accommodate. To address this, girls who were unable to join the girls' camps can now register for the boys' camps. Note that the Junior boys' net height matches the Senior girls' height.
