Southwestern to host Summer Volleyball Camps, June 12

Southwestern Oregon Community College’s Athletic Department is hosting a variety of Volleyball Camps throughout the summer. Half Day Camp: For players 8 to 18 years old. This will be a shorter camp for those who don’t want the longer commitment or cost of a full day camp. Players will get four (1/2) days of volleyball training and playing. We will teach the basics for those who are new to the sport, and review and improve skills with the more experienced players. July 14th – 17th (Tue-Fri) 4 day camp; 8:30-11:30am for 8-15 years, $85 total ($75 if paid early); 1:00-4:30pm for 15-18 years, $95 total ($85 if paid early). Full Day Camp: For players 12 to 18 years old. This is a more intense camp that is five days long and will be about 40 hours of volleyball or related activities. Players will take a break mid-day. Bring a lunch and plenty to drink for the day. We will work on individual skills and basic offense and defense teamwork. There will be a lot of playing and scrimmaging. July 27th – 31st (Mon-Fri) 5 day camp; 8am-5pm, $185 total ($175 if paid in full early). Overnight Camp (5 days/4 nights): For players 12 to 18 years old. Come and join players from the SWOCC volleyball team for five full days of volleyball and fun evening projects. Stay in the dorms on campus and have your meals in the cafeteria. This is a great way to check out the college, or just to have a fun experience. This is the same camp as the Full Day camp above, but we will supply 2-3 meals a day and you will sleep in the dorms. 2 meals on arrival and departure days and 3 the others. Players will bunk up 2-4 per room. You will need to bring a sleeping bag, pillow, & towel. Each dorm has 4 bedrooms with bunks and mattresses. 3 bedrooms in each dorm will have campers, and each dorm will have a counselor staying in the 4th room to supervise (SWOCC Volleyball player). After a long fun day of volleyball, campers will have dinner in the cafeteria and then return to dorms to do fun projects, play games, or watch movies (as each group decides). In the mornings, it will be breakfast in the cafeteria and then off to the gym to play volleyball. There will be a lunch break around mid-day. This will be a really fun time for everyone. This is a great option for those who live further away and aren’t able to make the drive to campus everyday. July 27th – 31st (Mon-Fri) 5 day (4 overnight) camp; 8am – 5pm in gym. $295 total ($285 if paid in full early). SWOCC / Boys and Girls Club Volleyball Camp: Aug 3rd – 7th (Mon-Fri) 5 day camp; 8:30am – 11:30am for 3rd-5th grade; 1pm-4:30pm for 6th-9th grade.
