Setter U’s 1st two sessions have been a huge success and we have see major gains in just a couple months. We’re very excited to be starting our final 5-week session for 2018 on Sunday, November 11th. Setter U  is Jacksonville Skyline’s setter training academy which will be lead by Jacksonville Skyline Co-Director Hugh Hernesman. Coach Hugh has been training setters for 20 years- 18 of those years at the collegiate level. Among many accolades, he has trained two AVCA All-Region setters and two AVCA All-American setters.

Setting is one of the most under-taught and under-trained skills at the youth level. It involves a large amount of technical instruction on top of a high number of productive repetitions. Setter U offers specialized setter training for both beginners and advanced setters once a week on Sunday afternoons. Go to the Setter U page to learn more or sign up HERE.

SUPPLEMENTAL TRYOUT- AGES 11U & 12U: Sunday, November 11th from 1-3pm.

We already have a full combined 11’s/12’s team, but would love to form two separate teams at the 11’s and 12’s. With most middle school seasons finished, now is the time to keep growing your game. For those just starting their middle school seasons, this is the route to grow fast in the sport! Click HERE to register!

Our goal of keeping up with the highest level of training brought us to Marquette Volleyball’s preseason practice yesterday. Thankful for all of our college coaching relationships built over the years and Coach Theis is one of our strongest. Great program and culture. This group is very driven and ranked #26 in the pre-season polls and picked to win the Big East Conference. Thanks for having us!

If you haven’t experienced it for yourself, these two will say what so many players that have either played for or been closely connected to Hugh and Steph Hernesman. Their training style and coaching styles are a mesh of some of the most respected coaches in the game at the collegiate and international level- from one of our former Lead Trainers with the USA Volleyball National Olympic team to the Associate Head Coach for the NCAA DI National Champion runner-up Florida Gators.

With over 20 year of college coaching experience and having successfully trained a large number of athletes and coaches over that time period, what you get at Jacksonville Skyline is proven training methods taught by experienced coaches that are solution-based in their approach. These aren’t theories and gimmicks of coaches just getting started in the profession, you’re getting proven methods that prepare players for their next level of competition!!

Jacksonville Skyline is unlike any club in the Jacksonville area. We offer 20+ years of college coaching experience: from the ACC on down. Those years have allowed us to work with and learn from Top 25 level coaches in the college game in addition to the USA Olympic National Team.

Those relationships give us and our athletes unmatched access which is irreplaceable when it comes to recruiting as well as keeping up with the latest training techniques in the sport.

Add that to the organizational systems of the Skyline family- which has been proven to be a Top 5 club in the Nation- and you have a club dynamic like no other in the Jacksonville area!

Jacksonville Skyline Juniors Volleyball Club is  very excited to announce TWO separate weeks of camps this summer to cover all ages and skill levels!

You may sign up for each camp individually OR you can BUNDLE the All Skills, Position Specialty and Serving camps for the week together for a $25 discount (for those that meet the age requirements).

Serving Clinic for 2/25 is FULL. Interest and demand for our clinics is exploding and we just cannot accommodate more that a certain number of athletes. We always will stay true to our word that our athletes and clinic/camp attendees will never be a number to us and will always get the personal attention they deserve!

Thanks to those who are attending and please be sure to sign up early for these clinics in the future.

 

11 Royal had a great weekend in Tallahassee! They played up an age division in the 12’s and finished 2nd in their Day 1 pool and then after losing in the semi’s, finished with a strong sweep in their last match of the day. #WeUse3Contacts #WeAllServeOverhand #LearningForTheNextLevel
