VOLLEYBALL
FUTURES Volleyball is a wonderful platform for girls to develop their love, skills, and knowledge of volleyball at a young age, all while having fun! This program will focus on introducing and developing passing, setting, serving, and hitting skills, along with promoting teamwork and sportsmanship. Participants will engage in a variety of individual/group drills and games in a fun and positive environment during their weekly training session.
Team rosters are typically created with players who attend the same school within the Elkhorn School District. During registration, players can request specific coaches and teammates, but these are not guaranteed. If requests exceed available spots, teams are formed based on registration timestamps.
"And somehow, somewhere, there was that little girl who picked up a volleyball and fell in love with the game."
