Athlete Level - BASIC
Basic (Grades 6-10, Beginners with Some Experience)
Who is it for? Athletes in Grades 7-10 with at least one year of organized volleyball team experience OR completion of 5+ NexGen sessions OR attendance at one four-day academy camp.
Basic Level
- Target Audience: Athletes in grades 7-10, requiring "at least a year of organized experience" or completion of NextGen sessions.
- Targeted Skill Development: This is the "really important part," as the basic level "explicitly focuses on...introducing and really drilling the seven essential volleyball skills, and serving is absolutely one of those core seven." This provides a "targeted chance for athletes to work on the serve."
- Foundational Reinforcement: It offers "actual coaching on the technique," allowing the athlete to "reinforce the proper technique [and] get feedback from coaches." This is crucial for fixing "little hitches or bad habits" and building a "stronger, more reliable foundation for her serve." As stated, "it's often about tweaking those small things."
Refund policy - https://sites.google.com/view/elitesite/academy-refund-policy
A refund will not be issued if the session's start date is within 7 days of the cancellation.
Each player must bring a volleyball to attend the session; the academy will not supply volleyballs.
Basic (Grades 7–8)
Athletes are introduced to the fundamentals of serving. The focus is on consistent contact, proper toss, and correct footwork for underhand and overhand serves. Players will work on building confidence to serve the ball over the net and into the court with control. The goal is to establish a reliable serve as the first step in starting the rally.

These sessions aim to provide a quality experience by ensuring athletes register for the appropriate level, as choosing a tier that is too high can impede progress for the athlete and their peers.
