As the season kicks off and the Darling Downs Selections for rep teams approach, the TVA has decided to run a one day training camp for young volleyballers in the High School age groups. Darling Downs selectors will pop in to observe the talent in action while our experienced local coaches put the candidates through their paces.
Technical skills will be developed and honed, team tactics covered with plenty of game time to improve team play and positions. TVA selectors will also be identifying those suitable to join the Junior Titans training squads to represent Toowoomba. More details to follow ….
