PRINCESS ANNE, Md. - The University of Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) is proud to announce they will host the High Peaks Specialized Volleyball Camps & Clinics for the summer of 2011.

The camp, which promises to help the player "reach their highest peak" will be held in the William P. Hytche Athletic Center on the campus of the UMES. It features three sessions each day beginning at 8:30 a.m. and ends at approximately 5:30 p.m. It is open to everyone and offers commuter rates and overnight rates with meals and housing options. The camp features t-shirts, prizes and awards for all participants.

The sessions add up to over 28 hours of expert instruction, featuring Coach Metil, his staff and players at UMES and other area coaches. The cost is just $125.00 for commuters and 425.00 for overnighters, which includes housing and meals.

Coach Metil, has won three Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference Northern Division titles in his four years at UMES and boasts two MEAC Coach of the Year awards.

He has a conference winning percentage of 95% in the MEAC (38-2), since coming to UMES and is 93-32 overall in that same time.

Under Metil's direction, UMES has been the national statistical champion in aces per set in 2007, 2009 & 2010.

The goal of the High Peaks camp is to improve sports performance and get the athlete "game ready" for greatness.
