Practice Schedule
Our teams train once a week for 1.5 hours, starting from the week of September 9th and continuing throughout the season. Our sessions are designed to emphasize team skills, from defensive strategies to offensive systems. While we prioritize team dynamics, those seeking individual skills enhancement can explore our diverse range of training classes. While Volleybox staff is responsible to create and help facilitate practices, each team will be assigned a parent coach to run drills and ensure they have enough players for their matches.

Calling All Parents: We Need Your Help!
As you know, finding volunteer coaches is one of the hardest things to do, yet it’s crucial for making our league fun and successful. We need dedicated parents to join us as volunteer coaches for our youth volleyball teams. No prior coaching experience is needed – just a willingness to support and guide our young athletes. Our Volleybox Coaches will provide you with practice plans and all the support you need.
Having enough coaches is the heart and soul of our league. To show our appreciation, we will refund your child’s registration fees.
Join us in making this season unforgettable for our kids!
