emphasis on positive reinforcement, the program seeks to build confidence

We operate under two governing bodies: USAV and AAU. We are a sanctioned organization that competes
at varied competitive levels within those two organizations. In the younger age
groups, the focus is primarily on development and introducing the younger
players to the game of volleyball. As we move up in the age groups the emphasis
becomes more competitive.
Many players play for the obvious reason: They love the sport. Additional
reasons would include, they want to get an edge, they want to improve prior to
their next school season, and/or they have the desire to play at the collegiate
level and understand how important it is to continue to improve their skills
during the school off-season.

USA Volleyball, in conjunction with the Elevation Group, created a junior beach volleyball tour comprised of tournaments and camps across the nation.
The USA Beach Tour is designed to provide grassroots programming as well as identify
top beach volleyball athletes for high performance programming. "We plan to build
on the great successes of the 2006 & 2007 Junior Beach Tours as beach volleyball's
popularity continues to grow, " said USA Volleyball CEO Doug Beal. "The juniors
who participate in the series this year could very well be our future Olympians."

LAVA 18 Red Wins 2008 AAU Regionals
|
|
|
|

LAVA 18 Red
1st Place Gold Division
2008 AAU Regionals
Lakeland ,Florida
|
We knew going into the AAU Regional tournament
that if we won it, we would get the entry fee for AAU Nationals
in Orlando waved. Every match, the girls fought to win. I know that going to Nationals
is going to be a wonderful experience for all of us involved, but the girls were not only
playing hard to win the tournament-- they did not want the season to end. They were not ready
to say goodbye to each other. I have to say, I did not want to say goodbye either.
These girls were fighting to have one more chance to be on the court
together before the club season comes to an end.
This has been a terrific season for not only
these fantastic volleyball players; it has been a very memorable one for me as well. I could not
be more proud of this team. We won three tournaments, placing 2nd and 3rd respectfully in others.
We went to Atlanta, Houston, and now we are off to Orlando to represent
the city of Lakeland and all the Polk County volleyball players, parents, and coaches involved in this wonderful
LAVA
organization.
"I feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to coach this magnificent team."
LAVA 18 Red 2008,
I WILL NEVER FORGET.
Go LAVA,

It is with great excitement and a bit of sadness that
I write to you about a change in our organization. Recently, I was offered
and accepted the head volleyball coaching position at Angelo State University
in San Angelo, Texas. It is an incredible opportunity for both me and my
family. I will be leaving in January to take over my duties at ASU.
Before
anyone panics about the future of LAVA, I want everyone to know that our
club is in great shape. Nothing will change with the way that the club functions.
Information will still flow to the website and to the coaches. Our email
system will still pass this information on to all of you that are registered.
Florida Southern's head coach, Jill Stephens, which many of you know, will
be taking over the club to ensure a smooth transition. Jill has really been
a major part of this club from it's inception. She knows, understands and
believes in the clubs goals and mission. I will still be very involved with
the club's day to day operations, including paying our bills, travel arrangements,
tournament entries and payment collection. Jill will be there to help facilitate
practices, equipment dispersment and coach's training etc. Mostly, Jill
has committed to help continue the hard work and success we have achieved
over the past 4 years. LAVA will continue to offer the youth of this area
a great opportunity to develop as athletes and volleyball players. I am
excited to see how the program will continue to grow in the years to come.
I am including the link to the press release on the Angelo State University
website.
Chuck Waddington Named ASU Volleyball Coach
Please feel free to contact me at any time. I have gotten to know many of
you over the past 4 years, and I will miss all of you and your support of
your daughters' goals. Please have a safe and joyous holiday season.
Sincerely,
Chuck Waddington
