Goals
- The goal of our provincial team program is to identify athletes who have the potential to develop and reach the next levels in our sport. This would include post-secondary, National Team programs and professional leagues.
- To identify coaches that have potential to coach in a high-performance stream.
- To help develop the athlete’s technical, tactical, physical and psychological skills by exposing them to enriched levels of training and competition.
- To mentor, develop and educate coaches in a high-performance environment.
- To provide opportunities for athletes and coaches to build their competence, character, confidence and leadership. To encourage/inspire athletes and coaches to reach the highest levels in our sport.
- To prepare athletes and coaches for participation and success at the post-secondary and National Team levels as well as Western Canada Summer Games, Canada Summer Games, and the Canada Cup.
Curriculum
In order to get all volleyball players in Alberta onto a similar learning and training program, the Volleyball Alberta High Performance Committee was tasked with forming a curriculum for 16-to-18 year old athletes to follow. The below curriculums are living documents that will be updated every few years to reflect recent evidence and coach/athlete feedback.
Team Alberta Warm Up:
The following Warm-up videos were developed by Carlyn Stilling based on sport science. All volleyball athletes are encouraged to watch and integrate these warm-ups into their everyday practice environments.
Team Alberta Athlete Expectations:
The following athlete agreement from a previous Team AB season demonstrates the expectations of all athletes that participate in Team AB and other high-performance programs with Volleyball Alberta.
