Youth Volleyball
To help your child have the best experience on the court, please make sure they come dressed to move and play! We ask that participants avoid wearing jeans and instead wear comfortable clothing that allows for easy movement, along with tennis shoes.
Kneepads are recommended but not required, and don’t forget to send your child with a water bottle to stay hydrated during practice.
Thank you for helping us keep everyone safe, comfortable, and ready to have fun!
