Volleyball Camp

Melissa Jackson, Bradshaw Mountain's varsity volleyball coach, and her staff will conduct a training camp at Bradshaw Mountain East (new Robert Rd.) for Humboldt School District players in grades 4-8 during HUSD's spring break, March 15-19. Session I, for 4-6 graders, is from 8-10 a.m., Monday through Friday. Session II, for grades 7 & 8, is from 10 a.m.-12 p.m. Cost is $35 for a one-week session.

The camp emphasizes fundamental skills geared toward the ages and skill levels of participants, but also includes special instruction in offense, defense and mental game strategies. Player-coach ratio is limited so players receive more personal attention.

Registration is Saturday, Feb. 21 from 9-11 a.m. at the west (main) high school campus gym. Pick up a registration form at the high school office prior to Feb. 21 and bring it with $35 cash or money order payable to: Bradshaw Mountain High School Volleyball Program. Players currently in the spring volleyball league receive a $5 discount on the camp fee. Late registration is $40. Camp officials will issue no refunds after registration.
