Our goal is to give opportunities for kids to learn the skills of volleyball without the pressure of game competition. Our focus is to use volleyball skill development as a means to help kids gain confidence, and “learn to learn” all while having fun.

Not every kid is made out to dive straight into matches, and often it only takes one or two bad interactions for the kids to drop out. We aim to be a place where kids can feel safe to try, fail and try again until they get it.
