USA Volleyball 2008 Women’s Junior Development A1 Camps Invitees

Congratulations! You have been selected to the 2008 USA Volleyball Women’s Junior Development A1 (DA1) Camp.

The Junior DA1 program is a very important step in our USA Pipeline. It serves a number of important purposes:

It brings top coaches to players in a concentrated training environment that promotes learning and skill acquisition.
The selected nature of the program ensures similar skill levels, allowing the players to progress, and the camp to move forward.
It allows players to demonstrate their ability to learn and improve within a short training period (this is a very important ability for HP and collegiate programs).
It provides participants with a standard and measure of how they need to improve, and where they need to get to, to progress to the next level.
Coach to athlete ratio is 1:8.

The USA Volleyball Women’s Junior Development A1 Camp program locations and dates are:

City	Dates	Accepted Number of Participants	Camp Site
