The NorCal Advantage: Early Access to Summer Programming

What is the NorCal Advantage?

The NorCal Advantage gives current Power League athletes the exclusive opportunity to register early for NorCal Volleyball Club’s summer programming. This includes clinics, camps, and training sessions designed to help athletes elevate their game during the off-season.

Who qualifies?

  • Current NorCal Power League Athletes are automatically eligible for early access to summer registration.
  • Select Non-NorCal Athletes may also receive the NorCal Advantage.

Can players outside of NorCal receive the NorCal Advantage?

What does the NorCal Advantage include?

  • Priority registration for all summer programs
  • Exclusive access to specialty sessions before they open to the general public
  •  The chance to work with NorCal coaches who are invested in your development

    2025 Fall Outdoor Grass Volleyball Program

    We are excited to announce our new Grass Volleyball training program. The program is for 3rd to 10th-grade girls and boys. Check the ages for each monthly session. Outdoor volleyball can benefit indoor volleyball athletes. Grass volleyball requires the athlete to play every position. Players will drill and scrimmage during practice to improve their skills.

    Play will be in traditional sixes format with some quads and triples training to improve mobility and ball awareness. Outdoor volleyball is challenging due to the sun, wind, and surface elements that indoor volleyball doesn’t have. We believe outdoor training is another way to improve your athlete’s overall volleyball skills.
