The Northern Illinois University volleyball team has announced dates for its 2014 summer camps and clinics.

Registration is available online.

New this year, Serve and Pass Clinics will be held Wednesday, June 11, and Wednesday, July 9, to cover two of the most essential skills in volleyball: serving and passing. Players will work on both skills independently and then combine the skills in a variety of games and drills aimed at honing these techniques.

Specialty clinics will be hosted Sunday, June 8, and Sunday, July 6, to focus on hitting, setting and libero play.

For individuals looking for a multi-day experience, All-Skills Camps will be offered from June 8 to June 10, June 11 to June 13 and July 6 to July 8 for players looking for a camp covering all aspects of volleyball.

For campers who have completed the all-skills camps at NIU and are looking for the full Huskie experience, the Elite Camp will be hosted from July 9 to July 11 for individuals ages 13 to 18. This camp is for the higher-level player looking for high-intensity drills for a greater challenge. A discount is available for individuals attending the Elite Camp who also sign up for an All-Skills Camp.
