Thesegroup training sessions are 2 -2.5 hours long and include instruction, drills, and competitive games.

On Sundays we will have3 group training sessions as wellfor 2x 2 hours and 1x 1 hour, with optional free play thereafter.

At luncheveryday,you'll have your group strategy session to help improve your individual tactics and approach on an off the court. These will help you become the most well-rounded beach volleyball athlete possible.

Players are separated into courts by skill level as determined by our organizers.

YourCalifornia Clinic Will Be Laser-Focused OnYour Skills

Each training session will have a very specific goal to get you better at a certain part of the game. This way you can work on one or two aspects without distraction. Our experience has shown thatthis is the best way to actually significantlyimproveyour beach volleyball skills in a short amount of time.

Our instructors are professional FIVB & AVP players and experienced coaches. They will be giving you the tailored feedback you need. This means that you'll know exactly what part of a technique you're doing wrong, and how to remedy it.
