SALT LAKE CITY - University of Utah head volleyball coach Beth Launiere has announced dates for the upcoming 2017 summer camps that she and her staff will host.

Ute Day Camp is for younger athletes who are just learning to play and don't have much experience. The emphasis is learning the fundamental skills and having fun.

All Skills Camp will cover volleyball skills in depth. Players are trained individually in all skills and in game-like situations. This is a great camp for all athletes looking to improve before the start of Junior High or High School season.

The resident option to stay over in the University Residence Halls and eat meals in the on-campus cafeteria, includes overnight stays as well as meals through the duration of their stay.
