Developmental teams play in 6 local tournaments and are led by an experienced head coach. Players receive a smaller gear package (for the Spring season only) of 1 jersey, 1 spandex, 1 practice short and a backpack.
Beach Team: Every Summer we put together a beach team of 12-18 year olds who are interested in developing their sand volleyball skills. Our team will practice 2 times per week between the months of May, June and July and participate in tourneys all over the state. We find that beach training can be a great asset for our indoor players and a chance to improve shot variation, overall agility and ball control.
