Lakehead Women's Volleyball is pleased to announce that former Australian and Canadian National Team Head Coach and Professional Head Coach, Mr. Stelio DeRocco will be the head instructor for the first ever Sept, 12th Adult Volleyball Camp held at LU's CJ Sanders Field House.
The first ever camp of its kind is a great venue for both senior players and local coaches to work directly with Stelio to enhance their skills, see the newest international techniques, and learn from the best on what and how to teach.
"Stelio's credentials, are impressive. He has been a mentor for me from the day I met him. From a former national team player to coaching around the world with 2 National teams, and many professional teams, he easily boasts the experience to make all of us better. My international career started with Stelio. He is a motivator, knowledgeable and brings amazing energy to the practice court. We are so honored to have him commit to helping us here in Thunder Bay at Lakehead University. Coaches can register on line but hurry as spots will be limited. Coaches can register to participate, or take notes and learn from the sidelines. The second session ( Sept. 19th) will be run by myself helping coaches learn more about rotations and specific offensive and defensive systems." Chris Green.

Continuously ranked in the Top 10 in the World. We had best ever
performances in 2003 Norceca Championships beating Cuba 3-2 in Mexico to
Qualify for the 2003 World Cup in Japan, where we also had a best ever
performance finishing tied for 6th place with Korea. Without the World
League the team has always maintained not only a consistent World ranking,
but also a very fierce and competitive team. My many duties with the
National Team saw me overlook all developmental programs from youth, junior
and FISU teams. I also started an A2 senior team, where we slowly over the
years integrated new up and coming players to the Senior Team. I am very
proud of the fact that we have been able to keep many of our top players
with our program for many years and have helped many a players land very
successful contracts in European Leagues.

coordinating, planning, over view all developmental programs, and manage the

1996-2000: Head Coach of Australian Men's National Team:
This has to be one of the greatest moments in my coaching career, not only
for going to the Olympic games, it was taking a country that had very little
volleyball history and culture, to become a Top 8 team in the World, with an
8th place finish at the Sydney Olympics. It was special working in an
environment that was very professional, with so much to offer and players
that were willing to become the best they have ever been. My duties were not
only the day-to-day operations of the team; it also included the many
development programs and the creation of a National League in Australia. We
also became the number two team in the Asian zone.
