Tryouts for the 2010/2011 season
Black Hawks Volleyball Club will be hosting tryouts for ages 12 thru 18 for the upcoming 2010 / 2011 Club Volleyball Season. Keep checking back for Opening Date
It’s hard to believe that it has gone by so fast but the 2009 / 2010 Club Volleyball season is rapidly coming to an end and at Black Hawks Volleyball training will begin immediately for the upcoming School Team and Club Season Try-outs.
Black Hawks Volleyball will be expanding again this coming season, bringing back by popular demand two teams in each age group. We will be expanding our coaching staff as well, bringing on highly skilled current and former college players to add to our strong base of talented veteran coaches.
Our full coaching staff will begin working with athletes in our Summer Skills Clinics beginning in July and we will announce our full coaching staff sometime in mid-June. For May and June our Club Director Jim Irwin along with our NEW Coaching Director Chris Finseth (Our 16’s coach this season) will lead the Summer Skills Clinics for each age level along with several members of our current coaching staff.
We have had numerous requests to assemble teams for summer leagues. At this time we are not planning on Summer Leagues but will continue to entertain the possibility as we move further into the Summer Clinics.
Our registration is now open for all of our Summer Skills and we highly encourage everyone wishing to participate to complete our online registration form and remit checks for those clinics in advance to secure your reservation. We will keep our clinics to a reasonable player-to-coach ratio to assure the most training for each athlete.
Our Summer Skills Clinics will include all positional training to round out the athlete’s skill sets that will take them to the next level. Our Coaching Director Chris Finseth is very demanding on athletic conditioning for ultimate performance and will drill each group for the rigors of competing as all-around players. Our Clinics will also teach the athletes the intricacies of each position, decision making on the court under most all of the possible scenarios that occur during set play, and all of the choreographed movements that make the difference between an average player and one that totally excels in their position.
We hope to see you at our Summer Skills Clinics and look forward to meeting you. Please complete our registration form and remit your fees as soon as possible. Below are our Summer Schedules (Subject to change based on demand) and a link to the registration page.
All Summer Clinics will be held at the Collin Creek Community Church in Plano on the North side of Spring Creek Parkway between Coit and Independence.
Black Hawks Summer Clinics are grouped in 4 Sessions per Month for two hours each session. For those families taking trips during the summer and not able to attend all sessions we added the option this year to break them out into individual weeks. Simply indicated your preference on the registration form and remit the appropriate fee and we will include you on those individual weeks. Keep in mind that if you are making payment for your sessions at the door the clinics may be full and we may not be able to accommodate you on certain weeks.
In the event that a session does not reach a minimum of athletes we may cancel that session at our discretion and move those athletes that have preregistered to another day or age group to accommodate. Please indicate if you are flexible enough to attend a different session during a different day of week or if you can participate in another age group. It will greater assure that we can place you in one of our clinics.
Fees
Full month, 4 sessions in advance $80
Individual Single Session Clinics 30
In addition to your registration into our Clinics there is a packet of required information that will need to be completed prior to your first visit. This packet is the same that is required at our upcoming Club Team Try-outs in November and can be printed at the links provided below. Please complete EACH line of information, sign and date (by the Parent and Athlete) and hand to the Coach or Director on site. Once you have completed this packet it will be kept on file and when you choose to try out for one of our teams in November it will be on file at our tryouts desk.
For these Clinics our Coaches will be conducting the Sessions in the age groups they will be coaching during the Club Season. Athletes will have a chance to work with those coaches and become more familiar with them prior to making their decisions at tryouts. Dates and times for these Clinics are subject to change.
We are offering two different days per week for each age group to accommodate more athletes’ schedules. Please select the days of the week you would like to attend. You are also welcome to attend both days each week should you opt for more court time. Applicable fees would apply. (i.e. one day per week for full month $80, both days per week for full month $80 X 2, etc.)
