Hi coaches,
My name is Sean Kennedy and I am part of the grad class of 2022. I am 6’1, and primarily a setter, but I hit outside as well occasionally. I attend Belmont Secondary School in Victoria, BC and compete with Victoria Volleyball Association. I am also going into my second year at the Canadian Sports School.
Times have been strange with COVID, so my schedule has changed a little bit. During a regular school day, I travel to the Canadian Sport School Victoria campus in the afternoons. My training there includes: Olympic-style weightlifting, gymnastics, sprinting, and seminars on subjects like Sleep & Recovery, Nutrition, and other high-performance related topics. I attend Belmont Secondary for my courses, where I maintain a 4.0 GPA (95% average). In the evenings, I have my sport specific practices.
One of my biggest assets is that I am a very driven and motivated student-athlete. I believe my volleyball skills, work ethic and teamwork would be a great addition to your program.
Some of my notable accomplishments to date are:
Over the summer, I was able to participate in the Team BC virtual program. The year before I was named captain of the Vancouver Island Team BC and represented my zone at the BC Cup, where we placed fourth. Over the past few years, my club team has won provincials three times. We have also placed 5th overall at Nationals twice in the past two years. My beach partner and I have also placed 3rd and 4th overall in the province.
More recently, I was selected to the Team BC 17u selects team. We trained for two weeks at the TRU campus in Kamloops. This was one of my most memorable experiences to date and I feel that grew so much in that short time.
With the lightening of restrictions, I have been able to play a lot more and secure more in game footage. I am happy to send as much as possible along if requested!
I am looking forward to continuing this conversation with you.
Thank you!
