Volleyball

Got game? Hit the courts with the ones who invented the game – the Y!

The White Rock YMCA youth volleyball league is offered in the fall and spring seasons and is played with Lake Highlands YMCA.  It has no tryouts and everyone is welcome. It   Thanks to the Y’s sports philosophy and volleyball rules, kids participate in every game and receive equal playing time, regardless of skill level. Youth volleyball at the Y develops fundamental volleyball skills, teaches teamwork, and promotes physical activity in a team environment. Volleyball players will learn to spike, block, and assist and competitively learn to serve, pass, set, attack, block, and dig while having a positive experience and having fun. 

Participants should register based on the calendar grade of Fall 2022 to the end of the Summer 2023 school year.
