Register now, sessions are filling quickly!

We offer two sessions of VolleyBees and VolleyStars that run during the same time of the year as our competitive Aspire, Regional, and National Teams.  Each Session runs for about 8 weeks and meets 1-2 times per week. Registration is now open for Session 2, which will run from mid-February to mid-April.

The primary focus of VolleyBees & VolleyStars is to have fun, while participating in a challenging and active environment. These young athletes will be learning the game of volleyball while mastering body mechanics and motor control. Note, that this is not a competitive program, but many of our current players started here! This program is led by Downstate coaches, with some of our older high-level athletes assisting in training.

Registration for Session 2 is now open!
