The Club is partnering with our friends at the Massachusetts State Police with the MSP Teams program to bring you another amazing season of the middle school volleyball league to the Clubhouse!

6th, 7th, and 8th grade youth are encouraged to join this co-ed, all-levels league. Due to the generous support from MA State Police, there is no fee to join the league. All players must be active Club members and register for the league on our parent portal. Not a member yet? Follow that link to register for the Club as well.

League runs from April 3^rd-June 12th with practices on Mondays & Tuesdays and games on Thursdays. There is an open tryout on Monday, March 24th, from 7:00-8:30 p.m. to determine teams. Practice schedules, rosters, and game schedules will be shared shortly about the try-out!

We are also seeking interested adult volunteers to support this new program! If you are interested in coaching and getting involved in the Club, email Dave now.
