Volleyball

Teams send the ball over a net using passes, sets, and hits. Beginner programs teach serving, court movement, and teamwork.

Who plays: Look for boys’, girls’, or coed programs. The United States Youth Volleyball League offers instructional play for boys and girls ages 7–15 at participating locations.

Before you sign up: Check whether play is indoor, grass, or beach, and ask about tryouts, court shoes, and knee pads.
