Important information:
All coaches interested in team camp should send an email to macsportscamps@hotmail.com or call 425-828-6150
to get on our mailing list for the 2008 HS Team Camps.
We will send out APPLICATIONS on January 24th.
All interested coaches will receive the same email on the same day with all of the registration information.
We will accept the first 26 teams to reurn a completed packet.
The COMPLETED PACKET for your team includes a minimum of 14 players registered.
EACH PLAYER will need:
1. An application signed by a parent/ guardian.
2. Proof of a physical exam signed by a doctor and dated in 2007 or 2008. I t can be on our form or the HS form.
3. Camp tuition payment.
Some things to consider:
1. Get a copy of the players physicals prior to January, so that you have them ready to go and won't need to wait.
2. If your team is going to fundraise, start planning now.
Answers to some common questions:
1. We have a minimum requirement of 14 players. We have found that bringing 18 is not too many. The ideal number has turned out to be 16. This is not only for training, but also because at night, we will split your team into 2 teams to play tournament games, which is extremely difficult with fewer than 14. Coaches have worried that bringing 16 or 18 would mean that players would not get enough repetition in training. We have found that with the amount of volleyball packed into a few short days, the extra players help with the overall quality of play, especially as fatigue and injuries become factors. Just remember that having 18 sign up in January doesn't necessarily mean you will still have 18 in July when you come to camp!
2. Camp will run for the first 2 days from 9am-9pm. Dorm check in will be after 7am for the resident teams. Players should be at the Arena no later than 8:40am and the HS coaches will have the first meeting beginning at 8:50 am on the first day.
The last day will run from 9 am-4pm and will include the final session of the camp tournament games beginning at 1pm. Closing ceremonies will begin at 3:30 pm. All parents and families are invited to attend the entire afternoon session.
Campers will be dismissed at 4pm.
3. You will have the option to pick which session you would like to attend. We will keep everyone posted as we receive team packets so that you know when a session is full..
4. You will be able to chose either the commuter or resident option. Resident teams will need to have a coach or adult chaperone stay in the dorm with the team.
