Open Gyms
What's an 'Open Gym'??
Open gym sessions give athletes a chance to train and play volleyball in the Wolverines environment without the pressure of tryouts or the time commitment of camps.
Open gyms are:
- A one-day commitment
- Structured and supervised
- Focused on reps, effort, and game play
- Affordable and accessible; just $10!
Athletes do not need to worry about making a team or being evaluated. They do need to show up ready to work.
For many athletes, an open gym is the first real introduction to the Wolverines. These sessions help athletes:
- Learn what Wolverines practices feel like
- Meet potential future teammates
- Spend time around Wolverines coaches
- Decide whether our club is a good fit
Lower pressure does not mean lower expectations. Effort, focus, and respect still matter.
Be prepared
Registration is required.
Athletes must be registered and paid in advance to attend open gym. Drop-ins are not permitted.
Open gym sessions involve continuous movement and game play. Athletes should expect a physically active session in a warm gym environment.
Athletes should come prepared with:
- Indoor athletic shoes
- Knee pads – The best selection is available at United Source for Sports in Edmonton
- Comfortable athletic clothing that allows full movement
- A large, leak-prooof water bottle
- Long hair tied back securely
Volleyballs are provided unless otherwise noted.
