Developmental Skills Clinics

2nd - 8th Grade 

Registration Opening November 17
​HCI Winter Camps & Pre-Season Clinic

Bump, set, spike! 🏐

For our elementary and middle school players (2nd-8th grade) we develop a solid base of fundamental skills as well as a passion for the sport. Emphasis is on teaching the values of good sportsmanship, teamwork, goal setting and skill development in a fun, esteem-promoting atmosphere.

Each class will include stretches, warm-up drills, and teaching the game and the basic skills to new students while at the same time correcting and perfecting the technique of the more experienced players.  Players will also have an opportunity to learn the rules of playing a match. This is a great opportunity to freshen up your skills prior to the league!!!!

The January clinic is a great opportunity for our coaches to pre-evaluate players interested in either Select division and to help athletes fine-tune the skills needed to earn a spot on these competitive teams.
It’s a perfect chance to keep your momentum going and sharpen your skills before the spring season

Below you will find a detailed description of each volleyball skill level:

1. New Players: 0-6 months of experience or no prior experience
  • Experience: These players are new to volleyball, either just starting within the past 6 months or have never played before.
  • Skills: They are in the early stages of learning the game and need to develop a basic understanding of volleyball rules and techniques.
  • Focus: Primary focus is on learning the fundamental skills such as passing, setting, serving (usually starting with underhand serves), and basic movement on the court.
  • Goal: Build comfort with ball control and basic movements, while fostering enthusiasm for the sport.

2. Beginners: Some prior experience but still developing basic skills
  • Experience: These players have some experience, likely having played in casual settings or beginner-level teams before. They are familiar with the game but still require improvement in most areas.
  • Skills: They have a general understanding of the basic volleyball skills—passing, setting, hitting, and serving—but still need substantial development. Most can serve underhand, but overhand serving is either inconsistent or undeveloped.
  • Focus: Emphasis on refining each of the core skills, improving consistency, and transitioning to more advanced techniques, like overhand serves. The focus remains largely on individual skill development.
  • Goal: Gain consistency in serving, improve accuracy in passing, and develop better court awareness.

3. Intermediates: Mastery of basic skills and ready for advanced challenges
  • Experience: These players have a solid background in volleyball and have likely played for at least a year or more. They have mastered the basics and are now ready to be challenged with more advanced play.
  • Skills: They can consistently perform all the basic skills—passing, setting, hitting, and overhand serving. They can serve overhand with consistency and accuracy, and they can pass to a target reliably. Their ball control and overall technique are well developed.
  • Focus: At this level, there is little focus on teaching basic skills, as they have already been mastered. Instead, the emphasis is on refining advanced techniques, strategy, and teamwork. These players can begin working on more complex plays and game strategies.
  • Goal: Strengthen team play, improve tactical awareness, and prepare for competitive matches.

It's important to accurately select the skill level that best describes your child, as this will help the coaches provide the most appropriate training for their current abilities. By placing players in the correct group, each child will receive the right balance of instruction and challenge, ensuring they continue to develop their skills while feeling supported and engaged amongst peers at a similar level.

All sessions will be held at the
HCI Sports and Fitness Center at
13875 Bee Cave Parkway
Bee Caves, TX
