This is College Expectations!
Our college coaches say, "We will work on transition/wash/game like drills. Situations where you have to score. Not only emphasize the three skills, but do them with a kill. Heavy emphasis on finishing points and not just 'playing correctly'. Let's work on terminating rallies! If they want to play in college that's what I want to teach them this summer!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What was the difference between
High Expectations and College
Expectations.
A High Exp. camper needed to be at least:
* a rising 8th grader, with;
* three seasons of competitive ball.
A College Exp. camper needed to be at least:
* a rising freshman, with;
* five seasons of competitive ball.
(a "season" does not include equal playing time middle school ball, a rec
league, a county league, or a summer league.
If your daughter doesn't have the minimum requirements, don't give up yet.
We sometimes make special exemptions for outstanding athletes....tell us about your daughter and we may admit her!)
