11 Things You Need to Look for in Volleyball Camps

Volleyball camps are an exciting time to showcase skills and learn new tricks to take on the volleyball court.

Here are 11 things you need to look for in volleyball camps:

* Volleyball Scholarship - Volleyball camps for many high school and junior volleyball players are a time to improve your court skills in hopes of a college volleyball scholarship. Even if a college volleyball coach isn't at your camp, the instructors who run the clinics often know the coaches from the various universities and colleges and can recommend you if your skills are worthy. Work hard, improve your volleyball hitting, passing, blocking, digging and setting and good things may come from it.

* Location of Volleyball Camps - The volleyball camps should be in a convenient location, especially when it is not an overnight camp. When you're driving back and forth each day, make sure the drive isn't too time (and gas) consuming. Of course, if you are a great volleyball player seeking to attend a specific college, it often pays to go to that college volleyball camp so the coaching staff can see you close up and get to know you.

* Volleyball Camp Price - The price of the various volleyball camps will depend on the caliber of the teachers, the length of the lessons, and any freebies the volleyball player might receive. Is it worth it?

* Volleyball Court&Facilities - Top notch facilities mean the volleyball player will be able to play on courts and with nets that are regulation height, but also safe. Multiple volleyball courts are a must.

* Volleyball Coaching Staff - The instructors, trainers and coaches at volleyball camps should have experience playing volleyball themselves, preferably at the collegiate level. Often their volleyball bio is found online at the volleyball site.

* Age Ranges - Playing with other volleyball players the same age will help to improve volleyball skills, but it will also help promote friendships.

* Volleyball Experience Levels - There are volleyball camps for all ages and playing levels, but choose the one that's best for the volleyball player's present skills.

* Freebies - A free volleyball or a t-shirt is a nice way to end a volleyball camp and have a memory to wear or to carry for the rest of the year.

* Volleyball Affiliations - Volleyball camps which are associated with the American Volleyball Association, colleges, volleyball clubs, high school volleyball teams or other organizations such as the YMCA or your local rec center are the most common places to find a volleyball camp.

* Who will be going - Some volleyball camps are for fun and some are to teach competitive skills so it's best to know what kind of players will be there before the camp begins.

* Volleyball Equipment Needed - In some cases, volleyball players may need to bring their own gear or ball to camp. Knowing what to bring will help in making the final decision, especially if cost is a factor.
