Hurricanes is a Junior Club volleyball program that is dedicated to providing young athletes the opportunity to compete in an organized sport that will allow them to not only gain exposure to colleges, but also empower young women through mentorship.
Club Mission
Provide an affordable volleyball club that offers fundraising opportunities for young athletes in the Texas area, with some travel. Provide a family-like volleyball environment in which players receive opportunities to perfect their craft through repetition by participating in practices and tournaments, and the opportunity to gain interpersonal skills that they will use in life.
Commitment
Playing volleyball for the HURRICANES requires a commitment to the game, self-development, teamwork, and respect for others. Participation on a HURRICANES team requires time and dedication. The HURRICANES are committed to a strong work ethic and the development of our athletes mentally and physically. Our goal is to form athletes into volleyball players and young women through hard work, discipline, commitment, and mentorship.
Program Goals
To develop in the athlete a positive attitude toward the club, teammates, coaches, opponents, referees and parents; win or lose. To teach the athlete that winning is learning how to set realistic goals and striving to achieve these goals, both in practice and in competition. To teach the athlete respect for themselves and teammates in regards to their potential ability as well as achieved abilities. To teach the athlete that great teams must overcome adversity and that where there is adversity, there is opportunity.
Volleyball Training
The purpose of the HURRICANES training program is to provide quality training in all aspects of the game. Among other things, the training program includes jump training, quickness and agility training, volleyball fundamentals, and team tactics, accomplished through drills, scrimmages, and competitions. The program is committed to treating all athletes fairly, and giving each individual an opportunity to improve the many skills associated with this exciting, demanding, and rapidly changing sport. For a program of this stature to be successful, the team rules as well as policies discussed in this handbook must be followed and enforced.
