Inside a session

What every session looks like.

Roughly the same structure both camps. The Senior version goes deeper into systems and game scenarios. The Junior version spends more time on fundamentals and games.

Warm-up & skill drills

Passing, setting, attacking, serving, defensive reads. Drills run in progressions so every skill level gets a real workout. Conditioning happens through play.

One-on-one time

Every session includes pull-aside time with a coach. Quick technique check, something to work on, something you're doing well. No one slips through.

Structured play

Small-sided games and rotations through doubles and fours. Coaches stop play to coach in the moment, then keep it moving.

Cool down & debrief

A few minutes at the end to stretch, point out something specific each player did well, and set focus for next session.

Shade tent on site. A large tent with picnic tables sits next to the courts. Players sit out of the sun between games, eat snacks, hide from a passing shower.

Inside the training plan

Built on a published framework, not improvised.

The arc is structured around Volleyball Canada's Long-Term Development model, the OVA athlete pathway, the FIVB session shape, and peer-reviewed research on decision-training in volleyball. The PDFs below walk you through how I coach and what your child works on each week.
