I am interested in playing volleyball but I'm not sure that I am ready to commit to a travel team. What do you recommend?

White Cross offers much more than the travel team! During the off season we offer clinics and scrimmage nights, for more information see our Open Gyms and Camp/Clinics tab. If you are looking for one-on-one help, we offer private and semi-private lessons. See our Lessons tab for more information. White Cross also offers a recreational volleyball season in the fall.

We have teams ranging from 12U-18U. The number of teams and the age groups offered depend on the level of interest and skills seen at tryouts. We are planning to offer another Boys team for the 24-25 season.
