Philosophy Crossfire's staff has a passion for teaching the game of volleyball to young players. We believe that a structured and disciplined program will lead to successes on and off the court. We also emphasize the importance of conditioning, consistency and game knowledge. Simply put, the game teaches the game.

Technical Game Mental Game The Triangle Physical Game
Structure Structure is a key to training young athletes! Teams will practice on the same days and same times each week Practices will be focused on the skills that elicit success – passing and serving will be covered at each and every practice. Full court practice is the rule, not the exception Athletes will learn every aspect of the game, including referee and score keeping
Fury Academy All Crossfire players will receive pure volleyball conditioning from Coach Joe Ellis and his staff at Fury Academy Our focus will be on building balance and explosion that will allow players to take their game to the next level by increasing leg strength and core that will build not only physical but mental confidence. This also helps to eliminate or reduce the impact of the non-dominant side of the player’s body and injury Baseline measurements assessed throughout the season and feedback provided to each player
Gold Medal Squared ‘The game teaches the game’…drills that resemble game play will be used for training in practice sessions Statistical analysis of ball movement and ball placement is the basis for the system Training is based upon physiokinetics of the body…volleyball will be taught by simplifying the skills based upon the natural movement of the body
Mental Aspect Players will be empowered to make on court decisions based on what is learned in practice. Players will gain confidence based on success in challenging situations both in practice and in play Teams perform better when they work together for common goals. Individual and team goals will be documented regularly in each player’s journal along with skills and techniques that players can reflect upon.
Summary Maximum 11-12 players per team Pure Volleyball Conditioning (Fury Academy) USAV recognized training (Gold Medal Squared) Teams will level up in competition (Play up) Club and Power Teams at each level Players will journal their experience – data supports that writing goals helps people to realize them.
