Select Club Program

(Girls & Boys 10U - 11U)

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

 

This program is geared towards athletes who want to both learn and excel at the game of volleyball at a competitive level. The Select program will have shorter practices than our Premier and National teams and will spend that time focusing on the basics of the game through skill practice. A Select athlete can be an athlete who is brand new to volleyball or an athlete who has maybe already been playing for their school team as team levels per age group are determined by skill. A Select athlete is an athlete who wants the full club experience, but is still too young for a National program that goes through the summer. Please note that unlike the National program, most athletes in the Select program play other sports and this is completely welcomed and encouraged. While it's not ideal, a Select 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 Select athlete chooses to continue their season through June, they are welcome to register for our Spring season which many athletes choose to do.
