Location
Our camp is located on the
beautiful campus of Houghton College in the historic Genesee
River valley of western New York. The campus is just off Route
19, 65 miles southeast of Buffalo and 70 miles south of
Rochester. The Southern Tier Expressway is just 15 miles to the
south. (Directions
to campus)
Facilities
Houghton College provides quality
athletic facilities, including three full size hardwood courts,
state-of-the-art athletic training area, fully equipped weight
room, a 25-meter swimming pool, and ample meeting space.
Objectives
Houghton College Volleyball Camp
provides a healthy and wholesome atmosphere in which campers can
enjoy playing volleyball and developing friendships. Time will
be spent on developing the person as well as the athlete.
Our goal is to motivate the skilled
player, while teaching the beginner the basics to building a
strong foundation in volleyball. We will cover all aspects of
the game on individual and team levels. The 4-2, 5-1, and 6-2
offenses, as well as popular defenses, will be taught. Previous
experience is not necessary.
