The benefits of volleyball camps
Encourages a healthy, active lifestyle. Involvement in physical activity from a young age is essential to kicking off a healthy, active lifestyle that kids can carry into adulthood. Enrolling in a volleyball camp or program means your child is committing to regular exercise in a fun and supportive environment, for an extended period of time. Exercising releases chemicals such as endorphins, serotonin, and dopamine, which boosts your overall well-being and happiness.
Friendships. Extracurricular activities are an excellent way to make friends outside the classroom. They expand their circle. At a volleyball program or camp teammates will already share a common interest, and children will be placed in a class with others close in age. Team sports in particular, and camp especially, fosters strong friendships as teammates support each other through challenges, celebrate victories, and have fun together achieving a common goal.
Opportunity for advancement. Whether your child is new to the sport, has some experience, or is playing at an advanced level, camps teach new skills that bring your child’s game to the next level. Beginner, intermediate and advanced classes are available, so they learn alongside evenly matched teammates. The skills learned in these programs can be taken to recreational or competitive house leagues, as well as school intramural and varsity teams.
A hobby for all seasons! Volleyball can be enjoyed year round, helping foster consistency in a healthy, active lifestyle. Typically played indoors in the fall, winter and spring, players take their skills to the beach in the summer. Beach volleyball has a different court size, scoring and the number of players on a team, but it gives them a different way of enjoying the summer sun and soaking in some Vitamin D!
What will your child learn in volleyball camp?
Fundamental volleyball skills. Whether your child is a beginner, intermediate or advanced volleyball player, they'll learn principal volleyball skills or hone existing ones. Through various skills and drills, players learn to serve, pass, set and attack, as well as develop technical and motor skills that aid their gameplay. Some camps and programs issue a report card at the end, so children will understand their strengths and learn their specific areas of improvement.
The rules of the game. Many volleyball camps and programs involve structured gameplay and scrimmaging, giving your child firsthand experience with competitive play. Memorizing rules, methods and tactics, and experiencing gameplay will teach them to think fast and make snap decisions by drawing on this existing knowledge—a skill that is sure to pay off into adulthood in both personal and professional settings.
Communication and listening skills. Communication is essential to a successful volleyball game. During gameplay, players must quickly and effectively communicate and interact with teammates, to establish who will hit the ball, where players should move within the court, and to encourage and motivate each other throughout the game. Volleyball camps include drills that focus specifically on communication between players. By learning this essential skill in camp, kids gain a deeper understanding of its importance off the court as well.
Interpersonal skills. In addition to communication, children will learn invaluable interpersonal skills such as responsibility, team building, motivation, leadership, and cooperation. Kids learn how to work with others and use each person’s specific strengths, working toward a common goal. They also learn how to understand the emotions and behaviours of their teammates and respond accordingly, whether that’s providing a listening ear during a challenge, sharing kind and encouraging words, or helping resolve conflict within the team. The bond of a team is like no other, and the social skills gained from this experience can be applied in the classroom, family situations, and future workplaces.
Athleticism. Playing sports is a fun way to increase agility, fitness, muscle strength, and nurture your child’s inner athlete. Not only will your child learn the physical benefits of an active way of life, they'll become mentally strong as well. Athletics encourages discipline, patience, and goal-setting. Whether your child has Olympic dreams or simply wants a weeknight activity, the skills acquired at volleyball camp will bring positive changes to their life.
