VBVA JUNIORS
Are you 11 – 13 and new to beach volleyball? Or 10, and ready to move up from our Spikezone group? VBVA Juniors is for you. We train year-round; through a Winter and Summer schedule.
VBVA Junior training runs on a full size (8m x 8m) court, with full size match balls, although we do cross-over with our Spikezone balls where needed.
Training drills for our VBVA Juniors combine many of the fun game-based exercises used in our Spikezone program, with more technique-specific drills used in our higher level program; tailored to match the kids in each session. Our Junior program is the bridge between the subtle understanding gained through fun game drills in Spikezone, and the more technical awareness needed to transition into our more focussed groups.
Movement from VBVA Spikezone, through VBVA juniors into our higher level training groups is not necessarily age dependent. We offer opportunities to move up early if we feel a child is ready.
Cost, Schedule and MBVA membership
In regard to cost, VBVA does not run on a ‘per term’ basis, choosing instead ‘per training’ payments. Our per training cost is $20 – holiday camps vary. Each VBVA Junior session runs for 1.5 hours. Spaces are limited, so confirmation of attendance each week is essential.
Our Summer training schedule will be officially announced in the final weeks of September. As a guide, we are likely to offer one weekday afternoon session as well as our regular Saturday training.
Our winter schedule is currently in operation, and runs on a Saturday from 11am – 12:30pm. If you want to get down to a training, call or text Brett 0422 978 870
VBVA does not have a ‘membership’, but we do require all participants to be a member of either the Volleyball Victoria (VVI) Spikezone program (see Spikezone page), or Melbourne Beaches Volleyball Association (MBVA).
An MBVA membership is $26 annually, paid through the Volleyball Victoria payment portal. The link will be here soon. The membership does not come with a participant pack, but insures your child during all training sessions with VBVA.
All VBVA Juniors receive a free T-shirt after their 4th session.
