OVERVIEW
The 1,200-seat Calvin Gooding ’84 Arena opened in October 2005. It features three full wood-floor courts for basketball and volleyball that includes two courts across the main playing floor and the Kannerstein Pavilion which is a full-length court that allows for multiple teams to practice in the arena at the same time.
Located just outside of Philadelphia, Haverford College is the perfect location to host a Revolution Volleyball Camp. Join us and improve your volleyball skills this summer!
Camp is open to all ages and ability levels. Each camper will be assessed and grouped with campers of similar age and ability levels. Adjustments to the groups may be made throughout the week to provide campers with opportunities to train with and compete against different players. Drills, games, and scrimmages are designed to help each camper learn, improve, and have fun!
Camp Director
Hannah Dalton joined the Haverford coaching staff as an assistant coach for the 2023 season after graduating from nearby Cabrini University in December of 2021 with Bachelor of Science degrees in both Criminology and Political Science.
Dalton finished an illustrious playing career as an outside hitter for Cabrini, where she was a three-year team captain, a Division III AVCA All-America Honorable Mention in 2021, as well as a back-to-back AVCA Division III All-Region selection in both 2021 and 2022. A two-time Atlantic East Conference Player of the Year for the Cavaliers, Dalton was subsequently named ECAC Offensive Player of the Year as well as the PhillySIDA Academic All-Area Performer of the Year following the 2021 campaign. In that standout season, Dalton tied a Cabrini program record with a conference-best 505 kills. She was also named the Atlantic East Rookie of the Year after her first year season in 2018.
Dalton currently resides in Abington, Pennsylvania and attended Abington High School.
