FAQs
Do you have questions? See if your answer is below and if it isn't, please contact the directors for answers!
Where do I go to register?
Visit our registration tab at the top of the page. It will take you to our registration page.
Do we have to pre-register, or can we show up to participate?
You must pre-register for all of our leagues, open gyms, camps, and tryouts!
Do you have payment plans?
We only have payment plans for club teams and CYL.
Can I guarantee my athlete will be on the same team as another athlete?
All of our teams (club & CYL) and Youth Academy are based on age and skill level.
Are there tryouts for Youth Academy?
No, you will be guaranteed a spot on a team! But movement up the pyramid is up to each athlete!
How are teams selected at CYL/club tryouts?
We look at everything when selecting teams- we will look at all the different skills (passing, setting, serving, hitting, defense, etc.), as well as the coachability, athleticism, teamwork, effort, communication, and attitude of all athletes.
How many athletes per team?
For developmental clinics we are anywhere from 8-12 per team.
For CYL and Club teams we like it to be around 10.
Can I still play if I missed tryouts?
Yes. We highly suggest coming to camps or open gyms over the summer- especially if you know ahead of time that you will be missing tryouts. That way we can see how you play and interact with others and make a decision on team based on that. If you missed everything, we typically have a few make-up tryouts about a month or so after the initial tryouts. By this point, we might be looking for specific players to fill in on teams- so it becomes a little more challenging for the athletes.
What does play time look like?
For our CYL and Club teams, playing time is based on effort and skill shown at practices. Playing time MUST be earned and is not guaranteed for anyone. We do however, at least with our lower level teams, try to get everyone in when and if possible.
Does your club do fundraisers that will help families to pay tuition and/or travel costs?
We do fundraisers but it is up to the athletes/families in order to participate in those fundraisers. Things we have done in the past: Serve-a-Thon, car wash, restaurant nights, King Soopers or Safeway cards, chocolate sales, bed sheet sales, Bronco games, and spirit packs.
Do all club teams travel?
No! Some of our upper level teams will travel. Travel means we would go out of state to a national qualifier tournament. Places we have been before: Las Vegas, Reno, Orlando, Omaha, and Salt Lake City (but there are plenty more to choose from as well).
For our regular "Power" tournaments, we stay within Colorado, but they could be anywhere from Colorado Springs to Fort Collins.
Are practices open for spectators?
Yes. We ask that parents just sit and watch and not interrupt the practice in any way. And if you bring a child with you, please do not let them run around during the practice (within the practice area).
How much does it cost?
Our developmental clinics are $125 for pre-registration and $150 after. Please see our Developmental clinics page for more information.
CYL teams are $450 for the season. Please see our CYL page for more information.
For club teams, there is a range from $3200-4000 for the season. Please see our club volleyball page for more information.
My daughter/son has never played before, is this going to be a good fit for them?
YES! Our developmental clinics are specifically designed to help beginners fall in love with the game of volleyball and being a part of a team. They will focus on skill set and advancing skills throughout each session.
CYL and Club teams can have athletes that are newer as well; however, typically experience is needed for the higher level teams. We have different skill sets throughout the club as well.
