Welcome to our 6-8th Grade Training Page:
All Training Clinics and open gyms are held at CUVC’s WHITEHALL Facility – unless otherwise noted.
CUVC’s Middle School Training works to provide the best guidance and support for athletes while also giving as much opportunity to participate as possible. MS athletes can expect a 10-8:1 participant to coach ratio. All of our coaches are current or former coaches at CUVC as well as assistants from current college athletes. CUVC may have volunteer helpers from our 17 and 18 national team players, but never in a lead coach role. CUVC offers 6 courts devoted only to volleyball to maximize each player’s volleyball experience. All Registration changes need to be emailed to Tara at tspurgeon@carolinauvc.com.
**Please note** If you are waitlisted, you do NOT pay the invoice until you are moved into active status. Please pay your invoice or advise if you have changed your mind when you receive the notification so we can move onto the next player!
