Program Overview

The High Performers Program is a specialized program offered by the Peel Region District School Board, and the Toronto District School board. Participants do not have to live in the board boundaries to attend a HPP school. This program allows the student/athlete to complete their education with a consolidated school schedule and provides the daily flexibility that allows student-athletes the time to train in their spot, during the morning or afternoon each school day.

Volleyball High Performers Program (Mississauga)

The Volleyball High Performers Program (Mississauga) is an athlete centred program focusing on fundamental skill development, movement literacy, and integrated strength and conditioning that are age/development appropriate. This program is offered by the nationally acclaimed Pakmen Volleyball Club and is open to athletes who already play rep volleyball and are in grades 6 to 10. The program runs, Monday to Thursday, from 8 am to 11 am, throughout the school year at the club facility in Mississauga (TBA). Athletes attend a high performers school in the afternoon. Athletes are expected to attend school on Fridays.

Athlete Centred Philosophy

Training is based on individual development. Professional NCCP volleyball certified full time coaches lead each program with a low coach to athlete ratio allowing for lots of personal feedback, ball contacts and progress for athlete success. Unfortunately, our young development athletes often spend more time in competition than in training and development. Practice time is typically spent on developing team systems in preparation for games. While this produces short term success on the court, the technical skills of our athletes are being left behind. The High Performers Program aims to counter this trend with training sessions focused on individual skill, movement, and strength and conditioning development.

Stream 1) dedicated to grade 6-8 athletes who enjoy the sport and are looking to develop skills and tactics. The focus is on skills and body movement patterns designed for future high performance success.

Stream 2) dedicated to grade 9-10 athletes who have entered the sport, compete and train as committed club athletes. Athletes in this stream are at the early stages of high performance training and are entering into a key window of skill acquisition and fundamental movement patterns.
