Home Team or Travel Team

Every athlete in every track is placed on a team. Home Team plays local Naples events; Travel Team adds away tournaments across Florida. Your training track (Homeschool, After School, or Weekend Sand) is your schedule — your team is your competition level. Any track can be on either team.

  • Plays local tournaments in Naples: Volleyball Life events and our own series
  • Trains in your chosen track: Homeschool, After School, or Weekend Sand
  • Same training price for every athlete — register by day, week, month or season
  • Best for building fundamentals and consistency

Book by the day, week, or month — or register for the full season and save.

Membership includes jersey + AVP ball, 4 summer weeks and 40% off home tournaments

Travel Team

For athletes ready to compete beyond Naples

  • Everything in Home Team, plus away tournaments across Florida
  • Same training price as Home Team — add $75 per player only for each away tournament
  • Placed through tryouts and coach evaluation
  • Competes in AVP Next, p1440 and regional qualifiers
  • Coach on site at travel events for warm-ups and between-match coaching
  • College recruiting support: video, exposure events and coach contact

Skills testing

We like to establish each player's individual level through a series of basic skills tests. The tests advance throughout our program in level of difficulty and complexity. Our goal is to find out where our players are now, then set realistic goals given their available training time in order to measure their progress. It also helps players understand their own strengths and weaknesses for focused training.
