Flames Launches High-Performance Summer Volleyball Training Program

Flames Volleyball is launching its Summer Volleyball Training Program, a high-performance training environment led by current U SPORTS athletes, OUA competitors, and elite-level guest coaches. Sessions are delivered in small groups, with a maximum of 15 athletes and an approximate 5:1 athlete-to-coach ratio, ensuring focused instruction and meaningful reps. Training emphasizes game-speed drills, high-repetition skill development, and tactical gameplay, with a strong focus on decision-making under pressure. Athletes will also benefit from integrated speed, agility, and movement work, along with competitive open gym and live-play sessions.
