"This is one of the best camps my kids have ever been to!
Not only did they brush up on their skills, but they also learned so much about what it takes to be a good teammate,
and an all around good person! Thank you, Tom Houser, and your staff for coming once again to little ole Greene County
and devoting your time to them! And thanks to Coach Darby and Coach Lam for all you do for our girls!"

What The Camp Entails:
We will start the camp in separate divisions working on the girls' skills to ensure all the athletes can serve, pass, hit and dig properly. Throughout the camp, setters will get a lot of time working with coaches who specialize in setting. On the 2nd day, competitions will begin which emphasize the skills of the game. On the 3rd day, teams will be created in each division to get ready for the Thursday tournament. For the final few hours on Thursday, athletes and parents wil love watching the tournament!!
