What is JO volleyball?

USA Junior Olympic Volleyball, also commonly referred to as club volleyball, is a program that offers athletes the opportunity to further participate in volleyball after the normal school season ends.  JO volleyball programs have exploded all across the country over the last 20 years. Today there are over 100,000 registered junior players in the United States. 

Clubs are formed with the purpose of providing junior athletes with an increased knowledge of the sport, additional training, as well as competitive tournament play.  The season normally runs from November until April with some clubs continuing with their top teams in the National tournaments through June and July. The way it works is that players are placed on teams based on their age and skill level. Club Velocity teams are 12's, 13's, 14's, 15's, 16's, and 17's.   Based on the number of participants, age levels in some cases are combined.  In some age groups two or more teams can be formed.

High school programs are restricted to a few weeks of practice followed by a busy match schedule, making it very hard to get consistent, long-term instruction.  Thus, in some respects, playing one season of club ball sometimes results in the equivalent of up to two years of school experience.  This is because club volleyball provides as much as 50 plus hours of training over approximately 4-5 months.  In addition, club teams participate in numerous full day tournaments adding up to as many as 25-30 matches of tournament play depending on the level and participation of the various teams.  Athletes who play club volleyball are often able to return to their high schools with exceedingly greater abilities, skills, and confidence.
