Academy | Grade 4 to 7 (ages 9 to 12)

VolleyGirls Academy

The Academy is designed for girls in Grades 4 through 7 who are eager to learn, develop, and improve their volleyball skills in a fun, challenging, and supportive environment. Whether your child is new to the game or preparing for school team or OVA Club tryouts, this program offers the perfect next step in their volleyball journey.

Our Academy follows a high-intensity curriculum that mirrors the structure of a typical OVA club practice. Training sessions are led by experienced and encouraging coaches who are passionate about developing both the athlete and the person. Each session focuses on building strong technical fundamentals, improving game awareness, and enhancing physical conditioning through purposeful drills and gameplay.

But the Academy is more than just skill development. Our coaches also focus on mentoring each athlete; helping them grow in confidence, develop a positive mindset, and build self-esteem. We strive to create a fun training environment where every athlete feels supported, challenged, and inspired to be their best.

If your athlete is motivated, coachable, and ready to take their game to the next level, the Academy offers the ideal opportunity to grow, both on and off the court.
