Our VOLT Regional program is designed for athletes who want to develop their volleyball skills, attend positional practices, willingness and ability to travel 3+ hours to the majority of tournaments, and looking to be apart of a fun, competitive team environment. Regional tournaments are tentatively planned for Fargo-Moorhead, Sioux Falls, SD and Twin Cities area. Players are required to pay their own travel expenses, in addition to the season fees. Regional teams will have approximately two 1-day tournaments in addition to four 2-day tournaments.

Athletes can participate in just the Winter season however teams will be limited due to the LIMITED number of available tournaments and travel required.  Reminder, the Winter season does NOT have program levels such as Local, Regional, or Open as majority of the tournaments played will be out-of-town.  And, yes, athletes can participate in just the Spring season!
