Essex Summer Volleyball Clinic Series

This 10 clinic series is designed to advance the skills already developed through the Vermont Middle School volleyball season.  Join Head Coach Karen Chesser and the EMS Staff as they focus on fundamentals of the game, refining techniques, and applying more advanced instruction in a fun, fast-paced, positive atmosphere.  As we move forward, we will eventually teach the participants how to play Coed Quads and later, form teams to play in mini matches for the second half of the clinic series.  Boys and girls entering 7-9th grade are invited to attend!  No clinic will be held on 5/29 or 7/17. Can’t make the full 10 weeks, choose to join our Spring or Summer sessions for a 5 week clinic session.
