Volleyball Clinic: What to Look For in a Good Clinic

Sports camps and clinics can be a very fulfilling and beneficial thing for young athletes. Not only will they be able to spend a few days hanging out with other athletes and playing the sport they love, but they will also be learning and applying valuable skills, developing them for a future in high-level athletics. Volleyball clinics are no different and they are increasingly beneficial for young players, regardless of skill level. However, finding the right volleyball Clinic is important as well, depending on why your child wants to get involved. Today, the City Beach blog wants to look at some factors that go into a good volleyball clinic.

What Does Your Child Want to Get Out of the Volleyball Clinic?

This is the first question you must ask and arguably the most important one. While competition and skill development is a worthy venture, it also shouldn’t be done in a way that isn’t approved by the child. Meaning, if your child doesn’t have an interest in playing college or even high school volleyball, pushing them with higher intensity camps will likely push them out of athletics quicker. As a parent, determining whether or not your child wants to compete or have fun is a crucial factor.

If they want to compete, then you can find clinics that will focus more on skill development than fun. City Beach has a wide variety of clinics like this. These clinics will give your child the opportunity to learn from top-of-the-line coaches, as well as get to compete against competition that they may not otherwise be able to in their leagues. This is especially true of players that are currently playing in school volleyball programs at smaller schools where the competition level isn’t as high. If they want to have fun, we also have programs for that. While competition is important, we also believe that sports should be, well, fun. They should be fun and there are many clinics that place the emphasis on that side of the coin.

What Type of Clinic Are You Looking For?

Obviously, you are looking for a high-quality clinic. However, you may not be looking for a clinic with top-of-the-line equipment and facilities. You may just be looking for a parks and rec clinic for your child to learn the basics. The quality of the clinic goes much further than its viability. Assuming that all the clinics you are looking at are legitimate operations, your view of “quality” will shift.

How much money are you looking to spend? This factor is almost always determined by the skill level of the athlete. So if you are looking for a camp for your child to have fun at, you likely won’t have to break the bank. Higher level clinics for the higher level athlete, however, can run a little bit more expensive. How long is the clinic? Some clinics are single sessions and other are multiple sessions. These are just a few factors to consider
