What is club volleyball?

Club volleyball is a volleyball program that runs from approximately mid-Nov through April/May. Teams will practice approximately 2 times per week and play anywhere from 6-10 tournaments a season on weekends, depending on the club. Some clubs also offer agility training and optional skills clinics and open gyms play as part of their package. Club volleyball is not a league where a team plays weekly matches against other clubs.
A typical club team ranges from 10-12 girls. Clubs may offer multiple teams at each age group. The more popular clubs may have close to 100 girls trying out at the more popular age groups. A majority of the girls that want to play club volleyball can find a team. There are things that a player and parent can do that will increase the chances of getting an offer from a club team. These things will be discussed later.
