Volleyball Combines

Participating in a volleyball combine at Northern Lights Athletic Club offers numerous benefits for aspiring athletes. Throughout the year, the club will host combine dates, strategically scheduled around or prior to a Post Secondary Showcase. This thoughtful timing ensures that athletes have the opportunity to demonstrate their skills and physical capabilities to potential college recruiters and coaches, maximizing their chances of being noticed and recruited.

At these combines, athletes will undergo a series of precise measurements and evaluations designed to highlight their strengths and areas for improvement. The 5-10-5 Agility test, for instance, assesses an athlete's ability to change direction quickly and efficiently, a crucial skill for volleyball players who need to react swiftly during gameplay. The vertical jump measurements, both for attacking and blocking, provide insights into an athlete's explosive power and ability to reach higher elevations, which are essential for successful spikes and blocks.

Service velocity and attacking velocity are also measured, offering a comprehensive view of an athlete's serving and hitting power. High service velocity can make serves more challenging for opponents to return, while strong attacking velocity can lead to more effective and forceful spikes. These metrics not only help athletes understand their current performance levels but also serve as valuable data points for coaches and recruiters looking for specific skill sets.

Overall, competing in a volleyball combine at Northern Lights Athletic Club is an excellent opportunity for athletes to showcase their talents, receive constructive feedback, and gain exposure to post-secondary opportunities. It is a stepping stone towards achieving their athletic goals and advancing their volleyball careers. Statistics collected will be provided to registered coaches at our showcases.
