What's Different For 2013!
From Coach Miller: "This summer we will work on transition/wash/game like drills. Situations where you have to score. Not only emphasize the three skills, but do them with a kill. Heavy emphasis on finishing points and not just "playing correctly". Let's work on terminating rallies! If they want to play in college that's what I want to teach them this summer!"

We hope to use the VES gym again in 2013. It's an incredible facility!!

Air conditioned!
