The Made-The-Team Camp
The only middle school tryout prep camp in North Texas coached start-to-finish by an Olympian. Three days of skills, 6v6 game play, and a full mock school tryout — so your daughter walks into the real thing having already done it once.
Reserve Her Spot — $199 Try a Drop-In — $79Two Days of Prep.
One Day That Feels Like the Real Thing.
Every session is run by 2008 Beijing Olympian Carlos Luna and LVA staff at a guaranteed 1:8 coach-to-athlete ratio.
Skill Foundation
Serving, passing, setting, and attacking — heavy reps with individual correction, finished with 6v6 game play.
Position & Systems
Serve receive, position work, and game systems under tryout-style scoring. More 6v6 to prepare for Day 3.
The Mock Tryout
A full school-tryout simulation: check-in, numbered pinnies, a scored skills evaluation and a scored game evaluation. Coaches take structured notes on every athlete.
The Tryout Report Card
Every full-camp athlete leaves with a written one-page evaluation: strengths, gaps, an honest read on her chances of making the cut, and exactly what to work on before the real tryout.
The Parent Huddle
Day 3 closes with 15 minutes with Carlos: what school coaches actually look for, and the development path after tryouts — whichever way they go.

Other clubs and programs charge more — for the same generic camp. The only camp coached start-to-finish by an Olympian: $199.
The Made-The-Team Guarantee
Complete all three days, and if your daughter doesn't make her school team, LVA keeps coaching her free in DVA Fall until Game Day 1. No fine-print gymnastics. A prepared athlete who gets cut deserves a place to keep developing — and we provide it.
This camp does not guarantee your child will make the school team. What it does is prepare her as much as possible — physically, mentally, technically, and tactically — to maximize her chances of making it.
An Olympian on the Court.
All Three Days.
Carlos Luna — 2008 Beijing Olympian, 20+ years of international experience. Not a celebrity appearance: Carlos coaches your daughter's platform, footwork, and mindset every session, backed by a reputation for developing athletes at a pace that doesn't look normal.
No club in North Texas can say this.
Two Weeks. One Goal.
Week 1 — Tryout Prep
Week 2 — Tryout Week Edition
Frequently Asked
Will this guarantee my daughter makes the team?
No — and we won't pretend otherwise. It prepares her as much as possible physically, mentally, technically, and tactically to maximize her chances. And if she completes all three days and doesn't make it, our Made-The-Team Guarantee means she trains free in DVA Fall until Game Day 1.
My daughter has never played. Can she come?
Yes — all levels, no cuts. Athletes are grouped by experience on separate courts.
What happens on mock tryout day?
A full simulation of a school tryout: check-in, numbered pinnies, a scored skills evaluation and a scored game evaluation. She leaves with a written Tryout Report Card — strengths, gaps, an honest read, and what to work on — emailed to you within 24 hours after Day 3.
What if we can't make all three days?
Drop-in is $79/day. The Report Card and guarantee require all three days — they depend on three days of evaluation.
Do siblings get a discount?
Yes — registering more than one athlete? Use code SIBLING10 at checkout for 10% off camp registrations.
Which week should we pick?
Week 1 (Aug 4–6) preps before school starts. Week 2 (Aug 11–13) sharpens during tryout week — or after results. Both camps run 6:00–8:00 PM, and both weeks together is the strongest prep — 10% off.
Who's coaching?
Carlos Luna, 2008 Beijing Olympian, on court every session — plus LVA staff at a guaranteed 1:8 ratio.
How does the DVA credit work?
$100 of your camp fee applies to DVA Fall enrollment through Aug 14 — whichever way tryouts go, there's a development path.
45 Spots Per Week.
Then the Doors Close.
Each week is limited to 45 players — 15 per court, two coaches on every court. When the courts are full, enrollment closes — and "closed" feels exactly like "sold out."
