Premier Club Program

4th - 12th Grade Girls


---------------------------------------------------------

 

 

For the better part of 20 seasons the Premier Program has been our most popular program with teams being built based on tryout numbers (skill) and space availability. This program is geared towards athletes who want to both learn and excel at the game of volleyball at a competitive level. A Premier athlete can be an athlete who is brand new to volleyball or a seasoned veteran with years of experience as there are oftentimes different team levels per age group determined by skill. A Premier athlete is an athlete who wants the club experience, but isn't able to commit the time required for a Premier-Plus/full-season program that goes through the summer. Like the Premier-PLUS program, many athletes in the Premier program play other sports and this is both welcomed and encouraged. While it's not ideal, a Premier athlete may need to miss a practice from time-to-time but should be able to make most - if not all - tournament dates. If a Premier athlete chooses to continue their season through June, they are welcome to register for our Spring season which many athletes choose to do. The Premier Program offers the same elite-level training as our PLUS Program but in a shorter season with less tournaments. Premier teams typically play within an hour's drive from Sycamore in nearly every instance and training is twice per week. The season begins in November and ends in March.
