Our Position Camps are for girls, age 10-18, looking for more intensive instruction in their position.  These camps are open to any and all applicants. In 2023, 89% of campers rated their JMU Position Camp Coach as either superior or excellent.

Each Position Camp will have individual position training sessions, a combination/wash drill session and 6v6 game sessions with the other positions.

Our Setter Positions Camp will focus on setting fundamentals (hands and footwork), setting pins and middles, transition, serving and out of system setting.  We will sell out at 48 setters for this camp.

We will not allow campers to switch between position camps so please make sure you sign up for the position you want to be in for the entire camp.  Overnight Campers will have supervised dormitory housing on campus and all meals provided.  Campers will stay in Jennings Hall with up to two campers in each room.

Commuter Campers will join overnight campers for both lunch and dinner and will depart after the evening session (between 8:00-9:00P) at the Convocation Center.  In the morning, commuter campers should eat breakfast at home before joining their team at 9:30A for the first session of the day.  

Check in will be from 8:30-10A on July 12th.  Check out will be 4P on July 13th.

For those campers staying for both Position Camp and Advanced Camp, we offer an extra night stay on July 13th.  The cost is $100.

ROOM KEY & MEAL CARDS

Please make sure each camper has $40 at camp in the case that they lose a room key or meal card.  There is a $30 charge for a lost room key and a $10 charge for a lost meal card.  Let a coach know if you have misplaced either and we will get a replacement asap.  If you lose your room key on the last day, we kindly ask that you stop by the table to pay the $30 before departing camp.  This enables us to not have to take room key/meal card check deposits in the future.  Thank you!

Campers can purchase Snacks, Drinks and JMUVB gear at the camp store located in Jennings Hall.  Commuting Campers will have access to the camp store at check-in.
