Club volleyball is a way for young athletes to learn the skills, mental drive, and love for the game of volleyball. Pioneer Valley strives to challenge its athletes to achieve their goals and provide a fun, fair, environment to learn the game. Pioneer Valley Volleyball Club is open to all interested players of all ability levels. Teams will be formed based on player ability and commitment levels.
We are excited to announce a revamping of our Club Team Programs based on feedback of our members! See a breakdown of our levels in the table below that includes four offerings based on budget and commitment. |

CLUB TEAM PROGRAM DESCRIPTIONS
GIRLS NATIONAL - 2023/2024 Tryouts November 5, November 12 & November 19 (Times/Locations in Google Calendar on homepage)
National teams are the most competitive team option and made up of the elite and more experienced players in the area. These teams will practice at least twice weekly and will play against the highest level of competition. Tournaments may be 3+ hours away from the Springfield area. Girls National teams will have access to speed, agility, and strength training opportunities along with additional position-specific workshops.
GIRLS OPEN - 2023/2024 Tryouts November 5, November 12 & November 19 (Times/Locations in Google Calendar on homepage)
Open teams are geared toward the more serious player. Open teams will practice two times per week and will play against a higher level of competition and in more tournaments (generally 2 hours or less from the Springfield area) than the Girls Select & Regional levels. Girls Open teams will have access to speed, agility, and strength training opportunities along with additional position-specific workshops.
GIRLS SELECT - 2023/2024 November 12, November 19 & November 26 (Times/Locations in Google Calendar on homepage)
Select teams practice once per week like our Girls Regional teams though they attend many of the same tournaments as our Girls Open teams (generally 2 hours or less from the Springfield area). The skill level is generally more advanced than our Girls Regional level and can be a good fit for players that have other schedule commitments or may not be fully ready for the Girls Open level.
GIRLS REGIONAL - 2023/2024 November 26, December 3 & December 10 (Times/Locations in Google Calendar on homepage)
Regional teams are a good fit for players of any skill level. Teams are created based on player experience, desire to be placed with friends, geographic location, etc. Girls Regional teams will practice one time per week and participate in five one-day Spring tournaments that are generally within an hour of the Springfield area.
