The YMCA offers volleyball for ages 7 - 14. Depending on age and location, teams may be led by volunteer coaches or YMCA staff, and practices and game schedules may vary.
Our focus will continue to be on player and team development, coaching with character and keeping kids active and safe in our programs. Players must have and wear sneakers with non-marking soles to play.
Please check our age chart to determine your child's league.

Parents
Parents are expected to remain onsite (fields and gyms) as the primary supervisor of their child. This includes taking their children to the restroom and addressing any challenges that may arise. This allows our coaches to focus on leading practices and games. In addition, YMCA sports staff will be present at all practices and games.
Coaches
Youth volleyball teams are led by volunteer coaches and/or YMCA staff. All volunteer coaches undergo a background check and training. Opportunities are available for coaches and assistant coaches at all locations.
