Camryn Beacom '22 Recruiting Profile

My goals for post-secondary is to continue playing the sport I love and further my education. Balancing school and volleyball has never been a problem for me because I focus on my time management. I enjoy to be challenged and pushed on and off the court. As a child I grew up in Northern B.C, Canada, where hockey is everywhere. At 2 years old I was introduced to sports with skates tied on my feet, at the hockey rink. At 5 years old I was playing hockey full time, along with soccer in the summers. At the age of 14 I was introduced to the sport of volleyball and quickly decided that I wanted to pursue it. It began in grade 9 and I was determined to make the junior A volleyball team. With my dedication, I picked up the rules and systems of the game in a week and attended the try outs. That year a teacher stepped up and created a junior B team, and I attended the try outs. The coach believed in me and gave me a position on the team. I spent every waking moment that year practicing and improving, and I earned a starting position that year. That season my team went undefeated, and I won the most improved offensive player of the year for my school. Later that year I went and tried out for Sky Volleyball Club and made the high performance AA team. Since then I have been rewarded with starting positions on both my club teams and my school teams. My mindset is to keep growing and keep working hard to keep my spot on those teams. I am looking forward to continuing to growing as a player and student at the university level.
