Attack Volleyball Club

FAQ

How to choose a volleyball club that best suits the player and the family?

Club volleyball requires an investment of both time and money. It is critical for every family to be educated, so please take the time to read through this information.  Being informed helps to make sure you are aware of the club requirements and expectations before making any decisions.  When looking at club fees, compare Apples to Apples, not Apples to Oranges!  Please don't make assumptions like a big club is better than a small club, or because something costs more, it is better.  Don't assume the right fit for your friend is the right fit for you. Talk to several different clubs as you start to gather information.


Be informed and ask questions no matter what club you decide to choose this season. 

Questions to ask the club you are interested in?

What age groups do you offer?
How do you select your players?
How many teams do you have at each age level?
Who are the coaches at each age level?
What is their background in coaching?
What is the club philosophy? (Does everyone play? Is it "play to win" all the time?)
What are your membership fees?
Is there a payment schedule?
What is covered/not covered in that fee?
Are there any other financial obligations? Travel? Fundraising? Uniforms?
Where, when and how often do you practice?
Are practices mandatory? What if my child misses a practice? Misses a tournament?
How long is your season?
How far will the team be traveling?

Do we cut Athletes or is everyone placed on a team?

We try to place as many athletes as possible, but we are always limited by the number of courts and the number of coaches we have as we try to place athletes on teams.


At the 10U/12U level – Any athlete that is not placed in the program is recommended for private instruction or Attack Skill Development Training.


At the 13U/14U level – We use a combination of athletic testing and skill evaluation to determine the best fit for each program. Position choice is taken into consideration, but we do move athletes to what we believe is the best fit.


At the 15U-18U level – We use a combination of athletic testing and skill evaluation to determine the best fit for each program. Position choice of the athlete is strongly taken into consideration, but we do move athletes to what we believe is the best fit. Position placement does influence our ability to make teams (we can’t have a team of all setters).

Additional Questions to ask

Once you have gathered this information, take a minute to think about what the athlete and your family hope to get out of the experience.


What does my child want to get out of the club experience?
Does my child want to play in high school? At what level in college?
Does my child just want to enjoy the game and play with friends?
What is my child's priority for allocating free time: job, activities with friends, other club sports, etc.?
Can my child keep up with schoolwork?
Can we afford the program we choose?
How important is it that we, as parents, travel with our child? Can we save money if our child travels with the team?

Final Thoughts

Sit down as a family and figure out which clubs match your player's goals, commitment level, financial situation, etc.  Once you have picked several top choices, look at the registration requirement for tryouts. You will need to register for the tryout through each individual club as they are a separate organization.  One club may decide to offer you a roster spot while a different club may not, so be prepared with your options.
