Club Volleyball INFO
Club volleyball, also known as youth or junior volleyball, is a competitive level of volleyball played by athletes outside of, or instead of their school teams. It is a popular pathway for talented volleyball players to develop their skills, gain exposure to college coaches, and potentially advance to higher levels of competition like collegiate or professional volleyball.
Here are some key points about club volleyball:
-
- Costs: Club volleyball can be more expensive than recreational leagues due to the higher level of competition, travel expenses for tournaments, coaching fees, and facility costs.
- Coaching: Club volleyball teams are typically coached by experienced and knowledgeable coaches who help players improve their skills, learn game strategies, and develop as athletes.
- Exposure and scholarships: Club volleyball can provide players with exposure to college coaches and recruiters, increasing their chances of obtaining volleyball scholarships to play at the collegiate level.
- Commitment: Club volleyball often requires a significant time commitment, as players are expected to attend practices, training sessions, and multiple tournaments throughout the season.
- Parental involvement: Parents are usually involved in supporting their players's club volleyball experience, including traveling to tournaments, volunteering, and managing logistics.
- Team bonding and friendships: Club volleyball can create lasting friendships and a strong sense of camaraderie among players as they spend a lot of time together both on and off the court.
Participating in club volleyball can be a rewarding experience for young athletes who are passionate about the sport and want to take their skills to the next level. It can provide a competitive and supportive environment for players to grow and excel in their volleyball journey.
