Event Format:
What makes our showcase unique is our responsiveness to the needs of our student-athletes as well as collegiate coaches. In considering their requests and needs, we have developed a format that allows for the most effective and efficient use of time for all participants. In order to accomplish this, our staff is composed of highly trained experts in the volleyball community. Our Court Coaches provide guidance and instruction on the court during drill work and court play. Our Skill Evaluators evaluate each student-athlete to identify strengths, weaknesses and overall skill level, relative to the all participants.
Position Play
During this portion of the showcase student-athletes will be divided into groups based on their registered position. Our Court Coaches will guide the student-athletes through a series of drills that are specific to their position.
Team Play
During this portion of the showcase all student-athletes will be assigned to a court, based on their skill level as determined by their evaluation during team drills. Student-athletes may participate on multiple courts and multiple positions during this time, depending upon their actual performance during the sets.
Top Dog Match:
Players will be evaluated throughout position play and team play. The top players will then be selected to play in the final Top Dog Match.
Recorded Interview Provided to College Recruiters:

Event History:
The purpose of our showcase event is to connect coaches from the NCAA, NAIA, Junior Colleges and Community Colleges to high school student-athletes, by providing an opportunity for players to perform in front of college recruiters. Each year we host approximately 200 student-athletes and over 200 volleyball coaches at the event or attending virtually. While we primarily host student-athletes from the south, we have had participants travel from as far away as Hawaii, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Florida. We are pleased to host student-athletes from anywhere in the world.
