YMCA of the Triangle youth volleyball leagues emphasize skill development and good sportsmanship. Our youth volleyball leagues are recreational and teach kids volleyball basics, like setting, bumping and serving.
Our recreational youth leagues focus on an "everybody plays, everybody wins" strategy. Out players also learn the values of caring, respect, honesty and responsibility in a team sports environment.
Each player receives a jersey from the Y. Participants must have sneakers with non-marking soles to play.
Teams
Teams are formed based on age and grade. We assign teams based on the child's age as of Aug. 1, 2018.
