VALLEY JUNIORS (5TH-9TH GRADE)
Valley Juniors are our 5th-8th graders who could be new to the sport, on a travel team, or just looking to play a little more volleyball outside of school. This is where we are aiming to play more often locally. There will always be a time of instruction and coaching to work on the fundamentals of the sport along with lots of opportunities to compete and put your skills into action!
valley juniors league
Valley Juniors is a "Train and Play" league designed to take athletes from our "Roots" beginners skill program into a league style play for 2nd-6th grader girls.
Athletes will continue to learn skills and learn how to compete in actual volleyball games. We will adjust the rules, court size, and net height in order to facilitate quality level of play games for each group. There will be teams formed throughout the 5 sessions.
A rough schedule of the sessions are:
10 Minutes - Mini Warm Up Games
20 Minutes - Skill instruction (Each day will be a new skill - Serving, Passing, Setting, Hitting, Review)
20 Minutes - Drills and Cooperative Games
40 Minutes - Tournament Style games
This is the League for any girls interested in volleyball to learn the critical skills at this age before moving into a VVA Club team. The VVA Club teams, which are competing at the top level Nationally, start at 11 years old and go through 18 years old.
