Just one month after Denmark was appointed the 5th FIVB/CEV Regional Volleyball Development Centre in Europe, the land in the north presents its first exciting activity.
To kick start the FIVB/CEV Regional Volleyball Development Centre – Copenhagen (DEN) a High Performance Summer Volleyball Camp is launched. The camp is a combination of trainer education and Volleyball training.
“Our ambition is to create a high quality camp, with interesting and challenging content for participating players and coaches,” says Sven Brix, Elite Director of the Danish Volleyball Federation and RVDC Director.
“We are pleased with the enthusiasm and dynamism which are being shown by our colleagues and friends from Denmark,” CEV President André Meyer says. “Immediately after their Volleyball centre was officially acknowledged as one of the main hubs for the development of our sport in Europe, they have started drawing plans as well as short and long-term actions that will surely benefit our Volleyball family.”
To achieve the highest possible level the Danish national team coaches are working together with the coaches from the Danish Talent Centre to deliver all of the practical and the educational elements of the camp. In addition there will also be additional club coaches working at the camp.
The camp is open for all youth players (boys and girls) born no later than 2003 (primary 1996-2003), who would like to train, educate themselves and meet old and make new friends. In total 320 players and 33 coaches attended the camp in 2013.
To end the camp an international match between Denmark and Austria in the men’s CEV Volleyball European League is included.
The camp is located in Ikast, a smaller town in the heart of Jutland.
