2026 Volleyball Summer Camps at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Whatcom County
We are excited to offer a Half-Day and Full-Day volleyball camp this summer at our Bellingham Clubhouse. We will host a co-ed beginner division and an experienced division for each camp. Registration is open through June 19th for kids of any experience level entering 6th-8th grade.
Half-Day Camp
Dates:
July 6th – 10th | 8:00 am – 12:00 pm
Location:
Bellingham Clubhouse | 1715 Kentucky St. Bellingham, WA 98229
*Divisions:
Beginner Co-Ed: 6th Grade – 8th Grade
This division is for players who have not previously participated in a league and are just starting their volleyball journey. This division is also for players who may have completed a league season but are still developing fundamental skills.
Experienced Co-Ed: 6th Grade – 8th Grade
This division is intended for players who have played in a league format and have a solid foundation of fundamental volleyball skills. This division will be tailored for skill progression, not initial development.
*If your athlete’s skill set does not match the skill level of the registered group, we will change their group placement on the first day of camp after a brief skills assessment.
Program Description:
This half-day volleyball camp will focus on developing skills in a fun and supportive environment. We will focus not only on developing volleyball skills, but also on promoting the complete picture of being an athlete, including nutrition, recovery, teamwork, and sportsmanship. Our goal is for players to leave camp with improved skills and a well-rounded understanding of what it means to be a young athlete.
*The program is contingent upon a minimum registration of 18 players.
What’s Included:
- Custom Boys & Girls Clubs All Star Jersey
- Breakfast each day
