About Shore Volleyball Academy.
Shore Volleyball Academy was founded in 2015 as Sempkowski Volleyball LLC by the the volleyball Coaches at Georgian Court University(Coach Dan Sempkowski and Coach Jason Ulrich). It all started with the sole purpose of offering a four day long summer volleyball camp to prepare campers for their upcoming High School volleyball tryouts (the "HS Boot Camp" VB Camp). Since then, we've changed names (now Shore Volleyball Academy) and added significantly to the programming. We have grown to 5 different unique summer camps, a winter Club Alternative all-inclusive program, several general skills clinics, and even a beach volleyball program that served 70+ athletes in their 1st year. In 2020, we even started some offerings for boy's. We now work with over 30 coaches over the course of a year, some of which were even athletes in our 1st HS Boot Camp years ago.

Recommended Programs by experience level:
BEGINNER- Any aged athlete who is either brand new to the game, or has not had any serious training (only participated in some clinics or middle school volleyball). This athlete is still working to execute the basic skills of volleyball (serving, passing, setting, hitting).
Best Programs for Beginners:
HS Boot Camp - we have a separate group for beginners
Any Skill Clinic - skill/techniques oriented program
Winter Club Alternative Program - our single largest program has multiple sessions, for multiple skill/experience/age levels to accommodate all
Beach Volleyball- we can use 14 nets, so open to all ages and experience levels
INTERMEDIATE- Athletes who have some experience and generally can execute all of the skills of volleyball at an introductory level. Typically this group would include those who played on Freshmen/JV teams (or did not get much playing time on Varsity), or only have 1-2 years of club volleyball experience.
