Skill block
A focused technical block on one skill for the week: serving, setting, hitting or defence.
Small games
Coached game situations in small groups, so every player touches the ball constantly.
Full court play

REVIEWS
If you're looking for a program that truly develops your child both on and off the court, Obsidian is something special. Highly recommended for kids who want more than just a sport but a meaningful journey for volleyball training.
Best volleyball camp during the school holidays. My boy enjoyed it so much and his skills improved a lot with 5 days training.
Obsidian Volleyball has benefited my daughter in a variety of ways. They advocate for youth and prioritise players' health and wellbeing, and adjust their training based on the child. My daughter has improved significantly since she started Obsidian. Lauren is a great trainer who shows her dedication for volleyball through teaching the youth. I'm glad that my daughter loves coming to Obsidian and that she is in good hands.
Coaches are super approachable, good consistent focus on the details of the sport and it's run really well by all their coaches.
