The SurfVolley Approach

We aim to create an environment to allow kids to explore a new sport, with new skills and learn the art of teamwork in an inviting and safe environment allowing them to build a new level confidence in themselves and others!

Outcomes & Objectives

The key objective of the SurfVolley program is to increase participation in beach volleyball at the grassroots level and educate young athletes about this fantastic team sport!

Our ultimate goal is to build confidence, teach teamwork, and learn new skills. Beach volleyball is one of the fastest growing sports for many reasons. Not only is it a fun way to exercise and stay healthy, it teaches our kids life skills that transfer from the court to every day life.  Communication, leadership, sportsmanship and teamwork are just a few of the characteristics that our kids will walk off the sand with through the SurfVolley program. SurfVolley allows kids to enjoy a healthy and active lifestyle at a young age, and grow to develop these skills every year.

Safety

As always safety is our number one concern when working with our SurfVolley kids. Our coach to player ratio gives each participant the attention they need to meet their full potential in the safest environment possible . We work with all of our kids to ensure from day one that they understand how to avoid potential injury by learning correct technique and training (including an all-important warm up!)

All of our SurfVolley coaches are first aid trained and have the appropriate working with children qualifications.
