Tony Fathergill
Camp Founder & Director
BIO:
Tony is the original founder and current director of Pacific Coast Volleyball Camps. He founded PCV Camps in San Jose in 1997 and currently resides in beautiful Lake Tahoe, Nevada. He has accumulated over 20 years experience both as a high level volleyball player and coach.
"My goal was to create a high level volleyball camp experience that could reach the many growing levels of youth volleyball student- athletes across the nation! With my experience I have developed a system that will teach your nurturing athletes the fundamental individual and team skills that will help your entire program achieve its goals. I have always been fortunate to have been surrounded by great college and international coaches and have decided as a life goal to pass this essential knowledge on to the future of volleyball athletes. I have coached in many college camp situations and some really care about the product they are putting out there while some have other motives. I have tried to compact the positive knowledge I have gained in these experiences to develop a great traveling camp experience! I have always wanted to provide something better than most other camps offered and at a much more affordable price for your athletes!"
It's an equation that requires many essential elements including:
- GREAT COACHING with quality drills and instructions!
- College and Club Coaches who are committed to excellence!
- SPONSORS who will provide for our PCV Campers
- ASICS - MIZUNO - TACHIKARA
- LOCAL COACHES and CAMPERS who are open-minded and ready to have fun while learning the amazing sport of Team Volleyball!
