Why Choose Jumpstart

 1.) Jumpstart volleyball club was established in 1998 to teach new and/or beginning volleyball players the fundamental skills necessary to develop more advanced volleyball skills and to prepare them for high school volleyball.

2.) Jumpstart teaches the correct skills in the correct manner using positive coaching techniques from the on-start of a player’s volleyball training. At the younger age groups, we concentrate on teaching:

  • Overhand serving
  • Three contacts on the ball
  • Basic defense
  • Overhand hitting

We believe it is critical that a new skill be learned correctly because it is difficult to unlearn a bad habit and replace it with the correct habit.

3.) Jumpstart coaches are aware of the skill level necessary to play at the different levels of high school volleyball; frosh, junior varsity, and varsity. Our coaches challenge all the players regardless of their age group to establish good building blocks for more advanced individual and team skills, such as:

  • Serving techniques and strategies 
  • Serve receive
  • Individual and team transition
  • Individual and team offense and defense strategies
  • Hitting techniques and strategies
  • Strong mental competency to compete at a higher level

4.) Jumpstart coaches teach every aspect of the game. A player that has learned good individual and team skills and has the confidence to be aggressive at the right time, will stand out and increase her chances of making her high school volleyball team.

5.) Jumpstart coaches communicate with parents regarding their daughter’s progress, rules, and strategies of the game.

Our goal at Jumpstart is to teach each player good fundamental skills and develop those skills into more advanced abilities that give each player a chance of playing on her high school team.
