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
Coach McUne applies techniques and philosophies of Rob Nielson (former Utah State University Men’s Assistant Volleyball Coach and current Utah State University Women’s Volleyball Coach) and Karch Kiraly (current Women’s Olympic Volleyball Coach and 3 time gold medalist for indoor volleyball, beach volleyball and as a coach).
As a player, McUne has experience playing every position on the court. McUne started her collegiate career as a Libero at Utah State University where her team won the Mountain West Conference. From there, McUne went on to become a Ju-Co All-American as an outside hitter despite standing at only 5’8”. McUne continued playing at the College of Idaho where she was named 2nd Team All-Conference in the Cascade Collegiate Conference, considered the toughest conference in the NAIA. Her team also qualified for the National Tournament for the first time in several years.
In high school, McUne earned Player of the Year honors after leading her team to the UHSAA State Championship. McUne is a two-time Utah High School State Champion.
Coach McUne is excited to share her experience and energy at the Revolution Volleyball Camps.
