[email protected] Capital Volleyball Academy takes pride in being an educational program built upon the fundamental skills of volleyball. We believe the life lessons and values we teach are essential to players’ development as athletes, students, and young people. Our goal is to develop individual and team skills in order to compete at the highest level possible for each group. We recognize that the most important lessons we teach athletes stretch beyond the volleyball court. We believe that hard work is a core value that goes into everything we teach and train. Here are our core values, which we aim to instill in all Capital athletes: 1. There is inherent value in hard work. 2. The club volleyball experience should be challenging, fun and educational. 3. Every member of the team must put their own interests second to the betterment of the team. 4. Capital athletes should strive to be among the nation’s best and exemplify true sportsmanship. 5. Capital athletes should win and lose with equal grace. 6. Each time a Capital athlete takes the court, it is an opportunity to better themselves. 7. Athletics should complement academics.
Capital will be hosting multiple Open House Informational Meetings this Fall: Middle School Girls Information Meeting When: Sunday, October 1st / 1pm-3pm Where: SEA-Verona (address below) High School Girls Information Meeting When: Sunday, November 5th / 1pm-3pm Where: SEA-Stoughton (address below) Boys Information Meeting When: Sunday, November 12th / 5pm-7pm Where: SEA-Stoughton (address below) Parents, players & friends are welcome to attend. Information about dues, apparel, practice days, coaches, travel, fundraising, weight training, etc… will be addressed and released for the season during these meetings. Club directors and coaches will be available for questions
8. To give your best effort each day takes courage. Courage is habit-forming!
All Age Groups will practice Monday evenings and either Tuesday or Wednesday evenings. Teams will rotate practices between the SEA Verona gym and SEA Stoughton Gym.

He has coached over 100 athletes that have gone on to play volleyball collegiately.
