Youngstown State head volleyball coach Riley Jarrett will offer seven individual camps, a team camp and satellite camp options for players and teams looking to improve their volleyball skills on YSU’s campus this summer.

The camps are run by Riley Jarrett Volleyball Camps LLC and are open to any and all entrants, limited only by number, age, grade level and/or gender. Discounts are available for select camps for YSU employees and siblings.

Position-specific skills clinics will begin the summer camp series during the week of June 8, with sessions targeting development in serving, passing and defense, setting, and attacking and blocking. A full-day youth camp for boys and girls entering grades 3-6 will be held on July 6, and a full-day all-skills camp for girls entering grades 7-9 will follow on July 7. A two-day elite prospect camp targeted at players aspiring to compete at the collegiate level will be held July 15-16.

Youngstown State will also hold a team tournament for varsity and junior varsity teams on July 18, and customizable satellite camp options are available for high school teams.

A summary of each camp option is below, and more information and registration are available through penguinsvolleyballcamps.com. Questions should be directed to Jarrett at rileyjarrettvolleyballcampsysu@gmail.
