As the fastest growing NCAA sport, beach volleyball provides opportunities for players to compete regionally and nationally. Beach volleyball provides thousands of opportunities for players to compete at the collegiate level as well as develop their skills to improve their indoor game.
Beach volleyball provides an environment and experience that helps players to learn well-rounded skills, to develop better court awareness, and to improve vertical, speed, joint strength, and more.
A major benefit of of beach volleyball is that the sport gives the players control and responsibility of the game. Most beach volleyball coaching happens in training sessions. During matches, coaching is only permitted between sets or at time-outs/side switches depending on tournament rules. Players learn to be more self-motivated, better teammates, and develop a better overall understanding of strategy for both beach and indoor volleyball.
