Boys and Girls Rec Program
For Boys:
MVSA Volleyball is now offering a boys’ recreational league in the fall with matches every Saturday afternoon from early September until Thanksgiving. Practices are once a week at local gyms. 2011 is the first year that a boy’s league is being offered and we plan to have a minimum of 4 teams. This program is open to all boys from grades 4 through 9 and will teach basic volleyball skills and tactics while in competition with other boys. We are planning for all of the boys to participate in one league but may create a further breakdown based on the number of participants.
For Girls:
MVSA Girls Volleyball offers a recreational league every fall with games every Sunday afternoon until Thanksgiving. Practices are once a week at local elementary schools. More than 150 girls from grades 4 through 12 participated on 16 different teams in 2010. This program is open to all girls and teaches the basic volleyball skills and tactics while in competition with other girls of a similar age and skill. Within the recreational program MVSA Girls Volleyball offers an Experienced League for those girls have played Junior Olympic Volleyball on the 13-and-under level or above or are currently on their High School Varsity or Junior Varsity teams.
MVSA coaches have a wide range of experience in coaching youth and are governed by a strict documented Code of Conduct that has been refined over the many years of MVSA existence. 18 of the MVSA Volleyball coaches have attended the Impact, USA Volleyball CAP I and/or CAP II clinics.
