What is the cost to participate?
Costs are still being finalized. Look for updates soon!
Who are the coaches?
Varsity - Kelly Schlagel and Kyle DuFrene
JV - Alix Johnson and Ben Putman
JV2 - Suzy Heilman and Greg Heilman
What is the difference between JV2 and JV?
JV2 is aimed at younger or less experienced players, or players who cannot commit to the Varsity/JV schedule. JV2 will have one practice per week on Sunday evening (vs 2 practices per week for JV). Also, instead of multiple match nights per week from April - early June, JV2 will have 1 match night per week during the month of May. On each of those 4 match nights, JV2 will play 2 matches against other local JV2 teams, for a total of 8 regular season matches during the season. All teams will participate in one local weekend tournament.
What equipment do I need?
Jerseys are provided by the club. Each athlete will need to provide his own athletic shoes and black athletic shorts as part of the team uniform. Kneepads are optional and may be purchased if desired.
Where are matches played?
Matches are local. We will host some at EHS, and others will be away matches. Our conference typically includes Lakeville North, Lakeville South, Apple Valley, Eastview, Burnsville, Rosemount, Farmington, Shakopee, and Prior Lake. We will also play 2-3 non-conference matches in the metro area. JV matches begin between 5:30 - 6:30, depending on the host school's schedule, and varsity matches will follow the end of the JV match. JV will play a best-of-3 match, while varsity plays best-of-5. Transportation to and from matches is NOT provided.
Can I play another sport?
Yes, but please be aware that regular attendance at practices and matches is expected. Please check our schedule page to see if volleyball will be a good fit with your other sport's schedule. We have had many track and field athletes in the past who made it work!
