“The purpose of the camp is to give these athletes the chance to get ready for the upcoming volleyball season and work on the tactics with the experience of many coaches,” said John Kohut, in his 12th year teaching in the Vicenza High School and one of the camp administrators.
He highlighted that the number of participants increased throughout the years.
“There were athletes coming from Belgium, all over Germany, Spain, Italy and also from Bahrain,” Kohut said.
In addition to Vicenza, participating from Italy were the high schools of Aviano, Rome, Naples and Sigonella.
