Train like the Badgers

Girls entering the seventh through 12th grades may attend either the Badger Advanced College Prep camp or the Badger Camp to get the "Badger" experience. Training throughout the camp will be similar to how the Badger volleyball team trains, with individual skill development and competition. The Advanced College Prep Camp will work on an accelerated training plan that will incorporate higher-level concepts at a faster pace than the original Badger camp. The Advanced College Prep Camp will be held from July 8-10 with the Badger Camp being held from July 16-18.

Position Camps and Serving Camps available on two separate days

The Badgers will offer specialty one-day camps for setters, hitters, and liberos on two separate days. Athletes may participate in special position camps on July 19 and/or July 20. Setters will be taught basic and advanced setting skills. Attackers will learn both beginner and advanced hitting techniques in addition to being introduced to position-specific training for outside, middle, or right-side attacking. Liberos will hone passing and defensive techniques.

Serving Camps

The Badgers will offer two separate serving camps. During these one session camps, training will include the breakdown of the techniques of elite level serving, including individual skills and strategies. The two serving camps will occur directly after the individual positions camps on July 19 and July 20.

Camps for Youth, Junior, and Little Badgers

A Youth All-Skills camp for boys and girls entering the fourth through eighth grades will be held July 16-18. This day camp focuses on all fundamental volleyball skills including hitting, setting, defense, serving and passing.

The volleyball program offers a total of three half-day youth camps for boys and girls ages 4-11. For these "Little Badgers" ages 4-8, two camps will be held, one on May 30-31 and one on June 1-2. These "Little Badgers" youth camps will introduce campers to the sport of volleyball while teaching new skills in a fun environment. For the "Junior Badgers" ages 8-11, one camp will be June 1-2.

Team Camps available

Girls' junior varsity and varsity high school teams looking to take their team to the next level can participate in the Overnight Team Camp July 12-14, while teams looking specifically to take on other varsity and junior varsity teams can attend the Girls Team One-Day Camp on July 14.
