Elevating Summer Fun: Volleyball Activities at Redwood Country Day Camp

Redwood Country Day Camp has been a premier destination for summer camps in Canada since 1974. Offering an engaging and supportive environment, Redwood provides campers with a variety of sports and recreational activities, including an outstanding volleyball program. As part of its diverse lineup of over 20 activities, volleyball at Redwood is designed to foster fundamental skills, teamwork, and confidence, all while ensuring a fantastic time for day campers.

Volleyball as Part of a Well-Rounded Sports Camp Experience

At Redwood, volleyball is just one of the many exciting activities campers get to enjoy. Our multi-activity summer camp provides opportunities for campers to explore a wide range of sports, arts, and nature programs. Volleyball is incorporated into our sports camp programming as a fun and engaging way to develop fundamental volleyball skills while enjoying a well-rounded summer experience.

Campers participate in volleyball sessions that emphasize technical skills, teamwork, and strategy. While some may arrive with previous experience in the game, others are introduced to the sport for the first time in an enjoyable and supportive environment. Redwood ensures that volleyball remains a fun and engaging activity.

A Supportive Learning Environment

The success of Redwood’s volleyball program lies in its emphasis on a supportive environment. Our counsellors work closely with campers to ensure they are learning in a way that matches their skill level. Every child receives personal attention and tailored instruction. Campers gain valuable insights into how to apply their skills in volleyball.

Our volleyball court in our forested area provides an enjoyable environment where campers can grow both physically and mentally. The volleyball sessions are structured to promote skill development while keeping them fun, engaging, and dynamic. Through structured  play in volleyball games,  campers learn to apply their skills in gameplay situations while still having time to enjoy all the other activities that Redwood offers.

A Balanced Approach to Training

Rather than focusing solely on volleyball, Redwood integrates it into the broader summer camp experience. Campers enjoy a mix of structured instruction and casual play, ensuring that they develop their athletic skills while also participating in Redwood’s many other daily activities. Each session includes:

• Fundamental Volleyball Skills: Campers focus on passing, setting, hitting, and serving as part of their sports activities.

• Interpersonal and Athletic Skills: Volleyball is as much about communication and teamwork as it is about athletic ability. Redwood’s program nurtures both aspects through interactive drills and team-building activities.

• Technical Instruction: Campers receive structured guidance to refine their technique while enjoying a relaxed and engaging summer experience.
