The Junior Training Program at Centereach Park, presented by Redefine Meal Prep, aims to teach players the game of beach doubles and encourage athletes to compete in weekend tournaments. This&nbsp;two-night program has two&nbsp;parts:&nbsp;training sessions every Monday night with&nbsp;East End&nbsp;Vertical coaches starting the first week of&nbsp;June, and&nbsp;organized league play on Wednesday nights with East End&nbsp;Vertical coaches present to offer live feedback to help athletes improve.
Teach&nbsp;junior athletes, boys &amp; girls 18 &amp; under, to reach a skill level that allows them to play doubles beach volleyball. The goal is to encourage athletes to compete&nbsp;in weekend doubles tournaments and possibly an opportunity to play beach volleyball in college.
Think of this 2-part program as:
<ul><li>Monday is for coaching.</li><li>Wednesday is for playing with feedback.</li></ul>
Athletes will train 2 days per week before the June 17&nbsp;start of league play. After the league starts, athletes will then train&nbsp;every Monday, and play in the league every Wednesday,&nbsp;which allows them to put into practice what they learned at that week’s&nbsp;training session.&nbsp;
If you have a partner for the doubles league, please email Richard Heiles, eevb@optonline.net, with your partner's information. Each partner will need to sign up for the League before being paired. Single players will be matched up for the doubles league based on skill level.&nbsp;&nbsp;We expect this program to develop into the top producer of beach volleyball doubles players in Suffolk, feeding players into EEVB’s summer junior tournament schedule.
Ages: 11-18&nbsp;
Player Level:&nbsp;We expect a wide range of skills in this program from novice to intermediate.&nbsp;Athletes will be grouped during training sessions based on skill level rather than age. Athletes who are not quite ready for doubles league play will receive additional training on Wednesdays until they are ready for league play.
Head Coach:&nbsp;Matt Toner will lead this new program. Matt, a certified USA Volleyball coach, was Assistant Head Coach at Adelphi University for 11 years. He also coached at the LI Big Apple Volleyball Club and helped found Dawn Patrol, which was combined with EEVB Junior Program to form East End Vertical in 2022.&nbsp;The 42-year-old coach has played doubles for 30 years in EEVB tournaments including early tournaments with his father in adult divisions. Our favorite strength exhibited by Coach Toner, in addition to his years of playing and coaching experience, is his ability to communicate with athletes and get them to understand his&nbsp;coaching, helping them become the best players possible.
