Our head Coach, Cam Green, has been in town since July 13th, kicking our butts in preparation for our European Tour.  He traveled Poland with us, and then we parted ways as we traveled to Cyprus and Cam returned to California.  Our time with Cam really kicked our game into high gear.  The more we train with him, the more we realize how it is essential for us to train with him and to have him travel with us as much as possible over the next 4 years.  We need the outside feedback, the motivation, the leadership, the exceptional technical and tactical knowledge and the laughter that he provides our Team.

Cam will be back to Toronto at the end of August to prep us for National Gold. We will be picking up our sponsorship and fundraising ventures into next season so that we can afford to bring Cam with us full-time next season, as we need his constant tutelage to speed up our learning curve as we move towards Olympic 2012 Gold.   If you have any suggestions on how to raise funds to hire Cam full-time, please let us know.

Liz and I are proud to announce our new sponsorship with Overkill Clothing.  For all of you in the volleyball community, Overkill is definitely a household name.  With outstanding designs and ahead-of-the-curve quality clothing, Overkill has always been our favorite training and casual clothing supplier.  So we're super stoked that we get to wear Overkill all of the time!  Check out their website at www.overkill.ca, where you too can purchase a wide variety of awesome clothing.

Poland was the most amazing learning experience we could imagine.  After an awesome first class flight to England, we spent the day in London making sure to visit the 2012 Olympic site (visualizing ourselves playing in the Gold Medal match, of course!).  It was one of the most moving experience's of my life, one that we will repeat as often as possible en route to 2012.
