Place one player on one side of the net and another on the other side, on the 10-foot line.
One player will toss the ball over to the other player on the other side of the net.
That player will attempt to pass, set, and spike in a controlled manner to the player across the net.
This is a miniature game staying in the vicinity of the 10-foot line.
You can add more teams along the net, up to three to four, so they each have enough room.
This is a great training tool for working on the fundamentals, ball control and hand eye coordination.
USYVL is a coed, instructional, non-competitive league that welcomes beginners. Our volleyball instruction and games are designed to be fun and safe for boys and girls ages 7 – 15. All registered players will be placed onto a coed team, based on a player’s age on November 1, 2024, in one of four age divisions: 7-8, 9-10, 11-12, and 13-15.
Players receive instruction in spiking, serving, setting, passing, and blocking. Most of our locations play outdoors on a grass field. Each player will receive a t-shirt with registration.
Our team coaches are volunteers and the majority are parents, like you! Volunteer coaches are responsible for coaching the team, taking attendance, set up and take down of the portable net. We provide an in-person volunteer coaching clinic and online volunteer coaching clinic before the start of the season and you do not need prior experience. In addition to the coaching clinic, you will have a local expert at all practices and games – the Clinician is your local contact.
If you would like to volunteer, complete a volunteer form online by logging in here: https://register.usyvl.org/My-Account/My-Volunteer-Registrations and click on New Volunteer.
All teams meet on both days listed online. The first day is practice and the second day is practice and/or games. We begin playing games in the third week and if we have nearby locations, up to three of those game days will be multi-site games.
The spring 2024 season begins in April. To join, enter your zip code on our website (https://www.usyvl.org/registration/find-a-program/) to see the registration details for the available programs near you.
Please don’t hesitate to contact us at [email protected] if you have any questions. We look forward to seeing your child on the court!
