High Performance Program Overview

The mission of the CEVA's High Performance Program is to increase the level of competition by providing additional training opportunities for our coaches and athletes by following the USA Volleyball National Team's training philosophies. Also, to identify, train, and assist our top coaches and athletes in preparation to enter the Pipeline to the National Teams.

2004 was our first year of this program. We sent one Youth Regional team to Austin, Texas to compete in the U.S. High Performance Championships (formerly known as VolleyClassic). In 2005, our program grew to three teams and we sent a Junior Regional Team and a Youth Regional Team  to compete in the Junior Global Challenge in Salt Lake City, Utah and one Select Regional Team to the U.S. High Performance Championships in Austin, Texas. In 2006 we sent our Junior Regional team to Europe to compete in the Junior Global Challenge.

2007 was our 3rd year where we sent one Youth Regional Team to participate in the Global Challenge in Salt Lake City, Utah and two Select Regional Teams to the U.S. High Performance Championships in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. All teams completed hard and represented the region well.

In 2008 we will be sending one Youth Regional Team and one Select Regional Team to the U.S. High Performance Championships in
Tucson, AZ July 23-27, 2008
