WELCOME
The 2025 UCF Summer Camp Series is quickly approaching, and we can't wait to get started! My staff and I are looking forward to hosting multiple sessions throughout June & July and are excited about the opportunity to share the training philosophies that are the foundation of the UCF program. Between Team camp, our single-day skill specific camps, and our overnight sessions, there is something for everyone and every position. Our camps are designed to maximize repetition and improve fundamentals in an environment focused on skill retention. We prioritize “learning” above all else and work with each camper to provide a challenging yet rewarding experience.
Please take a look at our updated session schedule and don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.
See you this summer!
Matt Botsford
All camps and clinics are open to any and all entrants regardless of skill level (limited only by number, age, grade level and/or gender). ** Per NCAA rules, camps are open to any and all (limited only by age, number, grade level and/or gender)

Our Facilities
UCF @ The Venue
One of the elite volleyball-only facilities in the nation, The Venue at UCF seats 2,000 fans for volleyball matches and is located on the north side of campus. Formerly the UCF Arena, the facility was completely renovated and re-opened in April 2008 as an 87,000-square foot multi-purpose, air-conditioned facility.The 31,000 square feet first floor at The Venue contains locker rooms, player lounges, and an equipment room. From the locker room, student-athletes have access to a state-of-the-art sports medicine facility located inside the new UCF Arena.
A 2,000-square foot weight room is also located on the first floor. The weight room provides the Knights with access to free weight and machine equipment, cardio, and treadmills.
The second level contains spacious office and meeting space for the women's volleyball and men's and women's basketball staff.
UCF's gameday playing surface is now state-of-the-art custom made Taraflex. Custom Taraflex courts by Gerflor, are the premier floor utilized by many universities and professional teams across the globe.
The UCF volleyball team opened The Venue in prime form on Sept. 2, 2008, when it hosted eventual NCAA National-Runner Up, Stanford, in front of a record-breaking crowd of 1,568 fans. The capacity crowd in attendance helped the Knights honor members of UCF's 1978 AIAW national championship squad with a banner-dropping ceremony.
