Augustana Camp Goal

The Augustana Volleyball Camps are designed to improve skill level and enhance the complete development of young players. The camp curriculum is designed to be fun and challenging with an emphasis on small group instruction. Players will be placed into groups of similar ability for drills, instruction, and team competition. Basic volleyball skills are stressed in drills and team play and campers learn how all fundamentals fit into the game. It is also important to the camp staff that we get to know our campers and have as much fun as possible while working hard and assisting them to reach their goals.
