2012 WSCC Volleyball Individual and Team Camps
***Wallace State volleyball camps have become one of the most largest and popular volleyball camps in the Southeast. Wallace State has 8 courts to accommodate 85 total teams as they each prepare for their upcoming season. Wallace State's team camps are designed to maximize competition play and we conduct our team camps similar to a club tournament, which features pool play and a concluding tournament. We also offer a very popular Individual Skills Camp to increase "Overall Skills" for those ages 10-18.

Over the years, the program has received 21 Coach of the Year awards, while producing 13 conference MVPs and six All-Americans. Wallace State volleyball teams have earned conference and district championships 16 times, earning them 12 appearances at the National Tournament.
