YOUTH VOLLEYBALL

Registration is also available for the Williamson County Parks and Recreation’s (WCPR) fall Youth Co-ed Volleyball league for kids ages 7 to 15 (age as of August 31, 2021).

The purpose of the program is to teach the fundamentals of volleyball to beginners and hone the skills of more experienced players. The league is divided into three age groups: introductory (ages 7-9); intermediate (ages 10-12) and advanced (ages 13-15). This year the league will offer four options for practice locations in either Brentwood, Fairview, Franklin or Nolensville, and individuals should register for the practice location preferred. All games will be played on Saturdays with most matches held at Academy Park Gym, 920 Everbright Ave. in Franklin and some held at the Franklin Recreation Complex, 1120 Hillsboro Rd. Registration ends July 11 or as leagues fill. Practices will start in early August, and games will begin the week of August 21 and conclude in mid-October.

The Introductory League (ages 7-9) is designed to build basic volleyball skills. Games and practices will be with volley lite balls and players do not have to serve from behind the baseline. Coaches are volunteers and will help explain the rules during game play. The registration fee is $65.

The Intermediate League is for kids ages 10-12 who are looking to continue the development of their volleyball skills. Games will be played with standard volleyballs, and players will not be required to serve from behind the baseline. The registration fee is $90.

The Advanced League is for 13-15 year olds who desire intense and competitive training. Players will be required to serve from behind the baseline and will be encouraged to serve overhand. Games will be played according to TSSAA rules. The registration fee is $90.
