1st-3rd Grade Youth Volleyball Leagues are typically 1.5 hrs, 1 time per week for 8 weeks. The focus is on introduction to basic skills. No experience necessary!

Our 4th-5th Grade Youth Volleyball Leagues are typically 2 hrs, 1 time per week for 8 weeks. Strong focus on introducing basic skills. No experience necessary*! After first week evaluations players will be divided into teams. Players will learn passing, setting, hitting and overhand serving as well as basic game strategies.
Begining in week 4 practice will run for approximately 1:15 followed by game play. Game play may be either 4v4 or 6v6.
Nets are set at 6'6"-7'0" and volleylite balls are used and a reduced size court will be used.
All teams will typically practice and play in the same facility at the same time- alleviating carpooling concerns.

Playing Above/Below Grade Level
Based on evaluations, players may be invited to play "up" at a higher level with parental consent. Prior experience will be required for consideration to play "up". Age waivers to participate in a younger age/grade level will be considered on a case by case basis.
Travel Teams
As our network grows we will begin to incorporate intermediate level travel teams and/or league all-star tournaments. These teams and tournaments will be a stepping stone for young players between local league play and club level play. Click here for more TRAVEL TEAMS
