The UYDL is divided into three divisions: U8/U7, U10/U9, U12/U11. A player may be moved up or down one division to accommodate his/her instructional needs or playing ability. Programs practice one per week with practice days during the week and 3 league dates (tournaments) held on the weekends, usually Sundays. Our program features a Technical Director who will design and lead each practice, as well as coaches and assistant coaches who are either current coaches or players at VC United. Our main focus program is to encourage children to do the best with their abilities. With an emphasis on positive reinforcement, the program seeks to build confidence and self-esteem in each child.

While the program teaches children the skills necessary to excel in the sport of volleyball, the focus remains on participation, cooperation, sportsmanship, responsibility, and, of course, fun! Strength, endurance and improved coordination result from the weekly activity of the program. Furthermore, a season of league matches is sure to provide plenty of exciting volleyball action. Skills are taught using technically correct methods for peak performance and safety.
