Q&A .... Club Volleyball ??????
There are so many clubs...what's the difference?
...it's the coaching!
There is so much more to coaching competitive sports than "letting the kids play". Constructive practices focus on skill-building, teamwork and pressure drills, to train your body and your mind to know what to do in any given situation. A good coach will know how to break down skills to fix incorrect technique - to teach the whole game, as opposed to simply a position - and to create real-game situations where sometimes the unexpected happens, so that your body is still trained to react in game-winning ways. It takes playing the game to truly understand it, and our coaches know that when you understand "why" you do something, the "how" will make more sense. Our coaches are players too!
...and character!
We understand our responsibility as role models in your daughter's life, and qualities like respect, integrity and honesty are important to us. Respect for each other, referees, other players and the game is first and foremost! And the honesty and integrity will follow as your daughter learns how to handle adversity, and exhuberance!, as she gains confidence and maturity on the court. Our players learn a lot about volleyball - and also about perseverance and accountability to each other. We recognize that we are not only developing volleyball players - but helping you create a strong, secure young woman.
...and FUN!
We take volleyball very seriously, but honestly, isn't this what it's supposed to be about?
Why Do Club Costs Keep Escalating?
Up until 2005, there existed a CIF clause which prohibited high school coaches from coaching their players in club, to avoid the conflict of interest which is now prevalent in our area. After the clause was eliminated, due to the lobbying efforts of volleyball club directors, clubs began situating their coaches in area high schools, in order to pressure those players to play for their club, at the price they demanded. What used to be a profession of pride and community spirit, has now largely evolved into "business as usual". Conejo Crush is the last of the fully independent clubs in our area - we are reasonably priced because our only special interest is YOUR DAUGHTER.
My daughter wants to play collegiate ball. Can you help her?
Absolutely! There are many avenues to explore when making the decision to play at the highest levels. The most important factor to consider now, is to get the training she needs so that as many options are open to her as possible. Then she can decide if she wants to play NCAA Division I, II or III, or NAIA or Junior College ball. All have pros and cons, and, thanks to Title IX, scholarship opportunities are out there. You can depend on our honest evaluation of your daughter's potential for playing at each level, as well as the guidance to make the dream a reality. Conejo Crush has many former players playing at all levels, across the country.
Where are the Tournaments Played?
The tournaments for 2012 are listed on the www.scvavolleyball.org/juniors/girls/schedule although the playing sites will not be known until usually the Wednesday before that weekend's tournament. The playing sites are all listed in the Parent Handbook you will receive at the Parent Meeting, and are usually located in the Anaheim/Fullerton/Cerritos area. One tournament every season is played in the San Diego area. The "Festival" is in Phoenix.

Gym fees have increased again for the 2012 season. However, we are doing everything possible to bring you the best value in club volleyball - we invite you to compare our fees to other clubs (if you can get them to tell you!) Beware the clubs who insist on your daughter receiving their "private coaching"; this can easily cost you an extra $1000 throughout the season.
Conejo Crush Fees include: registration into SCVA & tournaments all apparel and gear (jerseys, practice shirts, warm-ups, bag, shorts) coaching and gym time (we do not charge for any extra "individual coaching" thru the season)
