How to be part of the program?
At BCYVB Wolfpack, we believe that we have the skills and expertise to develop athletes with a wide range of experience in the sport of Volleyball. We are able to break down fundamental skills and challenge athletes to risk GREATNESS by trusting the process, rather than focussing on the outcome. We believe that it is a coaches responsibility to be able to TEACH skills rather than have an expectation that athletes should just be told a skill and be able to perform these skills to perfection. We take the time to reinforce habits until they become second nature. We encourage athletes to take chances, and WHEN they fail, we encourage them and give them the input and time to make the corrections so that they are able to grow as a volleyball player and an athlete.
As a result, we typically do not run tryouts to select athletes for teams. We are prepared to work with athletes who would like to play for our Pack, so long as they bring the following qualities:
- Work hard at all times.
Failing is inevitable but working hard in times when things may not be going well is a hard skill to master. - Growth Mindset.
Athletes have to trust the process. They have to continue to believe that coaches will teach, support, and believe in them even when they may not believe in themselves. They have to be willing to accept a mindset that, while they may not be able to do something YET, they will work on believing that with time, and experience, they can achieve whatever they set their mind to. Nothing positive ever comes out of negative thinking. This is a skill that can be worked on and it is what we expect our athletes to continuously work on. - TEAM first mentality
We truly believe that the actions of the group are worth far more than the sum of each individual’s actions. This is true TEAM culture. Athletes must be able to sacrifice personal glory for team success. They must be able to support the TEAM even at times when they may not be getting what they feel they deserve. - DESERVED vs EARNED
Expectations, or feeling that you deserve something can be a very dangerous mindset in a team environment. We believe that athletes deserve to be treated with respect, regardless of their ability. In a team environment, you need to EARN what you receive. Simply because you feel you are working hard and doing the right things, doesn't mean that someone else isn't outworking you, or doing things just a bit better than you. If you do the right things, the right things will happen. We love athletes who put the time in to do the right things, and are willing to put their ego aside for the betterment of the team.
If you would like to be part of our BCYVB WolfpackClub Winter programming, or our HP Competitive Club teams, simply complete the registration form found at the following link. We place athletes at their appropriate compete level which may or may not be the same as their age level.
