Important Notice for Camp Participants

Important Notice
In order for the academy to effectively place the participants in the camp we need them to complete a self-assessment before they arrive...  (it will only take five minutes but it is very important)

https://forms.gle/mtAewRfkkXh2iHgFA

With the availablity of coaching and gym time we can split up the groups by self-assessment survey, allowing the experience to be more appropriate to the skill level of the participant.  For this to work we need the information given in the pre-camp survey to allow us to better know the athletes.  Although many athletes have attend a lot of sessions in the past (350+ participants) it is difficult with further information for the coaching staff at the academy to place the athletes the survey will assist greatly in this goal.

The sessions schedule for the four days will be the following.  The academy does reserve the right to adjust the focus of sessions to meet the needs of the athletes.

We planned doubled our numbers in the beach doubles training program and we have done that.
We planned to increase the success rate of beach athletes and Michele our coach did more than that.
We planned to have the free beach sessions double in popularity and we have done that.
W planned to host a quality beach tourney and we have done that.

We have reached our goals.

The draw will be made on Monday at midnight so register before that.

Yes I made a Mistake


But I fixed it...

At the beginning of August, we open up a few more spots in the Making the Cut camp where you could register for individual sessions and not just the whole four days.  With this change, I had set it up so you have to register for each of the sessions individually which would have taken for a very long time to register for anything other than a single session.  Thankfully a frequent user contacted me and asked if there is not a way to fix that as it was a really poor design.  With a little quiet and thought I pondered the issue and fixed it.  Right after the fix, we had four or five partial registration, so people were waiting for the fix.  Comments, suggestions, and complaints are always welcome as they help the academy continue to develop the best system possible.  If you want to register for the Making the Cut camp there are still a few spots.
