CAN'T
WAIT FOR
DECEMBER 1!!!
On Dec 1, I will start taking reservations from the coaches who didn't host
last summer. So....last summer's hosts.....you have from now until
that Dec 1 to tell me what week you want and to send me a deposit.
~~~~~~~~~
"What I liked
about your camp....... so many things....the positive energy was just
electric and contagious. My girls are so pumped and excited for
the season and it has revved me up a notch. Your feedback is delivered
in a sincere manner, whether praise or correction, it is delivered and
received with respect.
This was a week of holistic volleyball, how to be a better player
through skill, team work, sweat and dedication. They are looking forward
to next year's camp!"
Maria Rushbrooke, head coach of Roanoke Catholic, host of a
2008
and 2009 STAR camp.
~~~~~~~~~
"Coach Houser:
I know you're probably still in the van on your way home, but I just
wanted to tell you how thrilled I was with your camp. Your staff was
heartfelt, knowledgeable and willing to work with all of my athletes.
You did a tremendous job and I appreciated all your hard work. I'm
soooooooo excited for my upcoming season. I know that your camp will
have a positive influence on our season. Take care and enjoy the rest of
your summer!!"
Fawn McMakin, head coach of St Marys Area High School, St Marys, PA, and
host of a 2008 STAR camp.
~~~~~~~~~
"Great job today. I think the kids worked really hard. My girls
love you."
Jim Barber, head coach at Westover Christian in Danville, VA, host of
eleven STAR Volleyball Camps, including
2008.
~~~~~~~~~
"[My daughter] still talks about you: "Coach Houser would never stand
for that"... "Coach Houser would yank her out in a minute for not giving
110%"..."if she tried to act like that on Coach Houser's team, he would
cut her out like a cancer!"... You once mentioned a poor attitude by
players on a team being like a cancer... you heal it or cut it out!
She has not forgotten that. You have set the bar high and it makes it
difficult to accept less or to comprehend coaches who accept less! You
do make a lasting impression on the girls who pass through your camps."
Suzie Helbert, former head coach, Stanleytown Baptist Academy and host
of a 2005 STAR camp!
~~~~~~~~~
I just finished the first day of tryouts for TCS - they looked good
- many KUDOS to you and your staff - I don't have to spend the first
week doing platform and spike approach! I look forward to a great
season.
Barry Kane Head Vball Coach, Timberlake Christian, STAR host coach in
2007
and 2009, Forest, Va
~~~~~~~~~
"I know your camp
helped one of my players with some self-concept issues because she did
not get much playing time last year, but this year she knows she needs
to step it up for the team. I think the "captain of the day" was a good
boost for the players."
Barry Kane
Head Vball Coach, Timberlake Christian, STAR host coach in
2007
and 2009,
Lychburg, Va
~~~~~~~~~
Bottom line…Coach Houser STAR VB CAMP… 15 eager to learn volleyball
players…14 hours of expert volleyball instruction….potential for a
winning season …. PRICELESS!!!!
And thank you for the great
website!!
Penni Douglas, host of a
2007 Camp at Oconee Christian

Information For
Coaches
When you schedule a STAR camp
for 2010, YOU are in control!
You make the critical decisions that are in the best interests of
your team.
Then, my coaches & I will do the rest!!
-
We will come to your school. This should promote attendance!
-
The assistant coaches will have extensive vball experience
and will be outstanding role models. The parents will love
that!
-
I will create all the handouts, take care of the warmups and
stretching, and plan the activities each day.
But the best thing about my STAR camps is:
-
The
cost is up to
60% less
than the residential camps your players will be considering,
-
and up to
40% less
than the national site camps that you may be considering!
-
You
& I will confer each day to ensure your kids receive the
instruction
that will help improve their performance on YOUR
team!!
And there's a price freeze
again for 2010!!
Player To Coach Ratio! Let's Talk!
The typical player to coach ratio is 6:1.
I just saw a website bragging that their ratio is 10:1.
And some coaches can't wait to tell you about their 9:1.
But there has never been a STAR camp where the ratio was that high.
At the 2009 Red Lion camp, there were 10 coaches for 53 campers.
At the 2009 EC Glass High Expectations camp, there were 7 coaches for 24 campers.
Your players will be engaged, learning, listening and improving.
Fundraise!
A STAR camp can become a nice fundraiser for your team!
Let me tell you how!
The Staff!
The STAR staff is a mixture of experienced head coaches,
and young, ethical, excited college & high school female players.
I guarantee that STAR coaches are role models who you can trust
around your players,
and are outstanding citizens who can confidently tell your players
right from wrong.
Every STAR coach is excited to teach your players the game.
I am just as picky about who influences your players as you are.
National Coaching Experience!
In just the past 5 years, I have traveled with my teams and camps to:
Columbus, OH Anchorage,
AK
Baltimore, MD St
Mary's PA Richmond, VA
Atlanta, GA Clemson, SC
Miami, FL Bear, DE
Washington D.C. Asheville, NC
My teams qualified and participated
in the
2006 J.O.
Nationals in Atlanta
and in the
2009 J.O.
Nationals in Miami.
I was also at the
2005 J.O. Nationals in Salt Lake City with my
stepdaughter's team.
The
formats for STAR camps are limitless!
-
We can do a Mon-Fri or Mon-Thurs camp.
-
Or we can do 2 days, 3 days, a weekend, Thurs through Sun, etc.
-
We can work with rookies in the morning, veterans in the
afternoon.
-
Or we can have two sessions per day for vets , with a rookie session in
between.
-
Maybe you want to reserve one week for your rookies and
another week for your veterans!
-
My coaches and I will even do an
in-season
clinic.
How Does A Coach Reserve Days For a STAR Camp?
Most coaches prefer the Standard
STAR all-skills camp. For info about hosting a Standard STAR camp, touch
here.
But
some coaches want to offer a butt-kicking,
intense
High
Expectations STAR Camp! Info on hosting a High Expectations Camp can be seen
here.
Together We Can Do Anything For Your Team!
A STAR camp can last 3 hours a day or 8 hours a day,
we can teach new offenses &
defenses, quicken your attack, etc.
We can do whatever you
think will make your team better!!
Is There Any Question Why The Popularity of STAR Camp Is Exploding?
6:1 coach/camper ratio! You choose the format!
Low price! The camp in made to fit your kids!
We can help you fundraise! Price freeze for 2010!
Forgot to tell you: We also provide a free website for you camp, and
we offer you and your players free support through the following fall!
No one in the USA offers all this.
You want to try us out?
Together we can do anything! Contact me at coachhouser@yahoo.com and let's see what we can do for
your team!!
CAN'T
WAIT FOR
DECEMBER 1, 2009!!!
On December 1, I will start taking reservations for summer 2010 camps from anyone who didn't host at STAR camp in
the summer of 2009.
2009 hosts: You have from now until that Dec 1 to tell me if you want our staff to return for 2010 and to send me a deposit. If you wish, you can change the week, as long as it's not a week that a 2009 host wants to keep.
New hosts: Get your $250 deposit to me asap with the week(s) that you want to reserve and which coach you would prefer to host your camp. For new hosts, it's first-come, first-served. |
July 14, 2009. I wanted to thank you again for the
experience that my daughter gained at the
High Expectations Camp this year.
We have sent her to numerous camps, both in and out of state and
some camps we paid twice as much as this camp. What she gained from
the High
Expectations Camp was so obvious each time she came home.
She would talk about each skill that she worked on that day and when
I quizzed her about how this camp compared to others I would learn
that they never worked with the participants at the others as they
did at your camp. She was excited about explaining the skills and
techniques that she learned form the various coaches and instructors
as well as the friendships experienced. She was the only participant
from the Roanoke area and enjoyed the camaraderie that she found at
this camp. The coach/instructor ratio is also what impressed me with
almost a 4 participants to 1 coach. This by far has been the best
camp we have sent her to and I would recommend it to anyone who is
wanting to increase the skill of their daughter.
Ron Ratcliffe, father of Lauren, c/o '11 at Lord Botetourt High.

January 31, 2008. [My daughter] will be going to your
high expectation camp this summer. I don't know what you do, but you
do a great job of teaching these girls and they come away with a
great deal of respect for you and knowledge for playing the game.
She was glad that she could go back to one of your camps. I also had
a mass email sent out to all of her Varsity and Jr. teammates for
your other camp dates.Coach Houser, |
December 25, 2006. I would
like to thank you for doing the camp at our school over the summer.
Our volleyball season went pretty good, 3rd place in the district.
I had the best season EVER!! I seriously think it was all because I
went to your camp. I've got some FANTASTIC news! I'm going to
play college ball next year, I signed my letter with the Lady Cavs
earlier this month. THANK YOU AGAIN!! |
August 23, 2006. Boy, you are good! I love
what you teach and I agree with your approach and philosophies.
|
ADDED BONUS!!
Each STAR Camp host receives a complimentary copy of
Coach Houser's Two "I Can't Wait" Ebooks And Drill Collection |
We
can also do an in-season clinic for your kids! Just email me at
coachhouser@yahoo.com and we'll get the planning started.

My daughter had a great time and enjoyed the plane ride with you guys both as
well. This is her first experience with volleyball and it was very positive.
Thanks for making it a memorable experience for her.
~~~~~~~~~
hey, i miss volleyball soooo much. your coaches made it so fun and
so interesting that I didnt want to leave!!! I hope i can come back
next year and improve my volleyball skills.The great thing about the
camp was that I could
hang out with some of my buddies.
~~~~~~~~~
Bella had a great time and is more proud of her flyswatter than any
other thing in her room. She came away with the self-confidence boost
she needed.
Missy Cadori, mother of two St Marys
2009 campers.

Coach Houser:
it's really hot in that gym, but it only makes you wanna work
harder.. I'm thinking of you guys when it gets tough!
Thank you, for everything you've ever done for
me and the team. (
