2026-2027 Boys Volleyball club season

Lakes Volleyball Club offers competitive boys volleyball programs for athletes 14U through 18U, focused on skill development, teamwork, and competitive play. Our season provides structured training and tournament opportunities in a supportive and growth-minded environment.

Lakes Volleyball operates with a clear and organized process:

Pre-Tryout Opportunities:
We offer pre-tryout sessions to help players understand what to expect during tryouts and to give them a chance to familiarize themselves with our coaches and environment. Attendance is strongly encouraged.

Tryouts:
Following the pre-tryout sessions, official tryouts are held to determine player selections for the season.

Team Selection and Commitment:
After tryouts, parents and players are notified of selections. A player’s spot is confirmed once the season fee is paid, which signifies their commitment to the club.

Season Preparation:
Once commitments are received, we move forward with placement assessments and begin our season.

All event dates, times and cost for the season —including pre-tryouts, tryouts, and assessments—are posted below.

For individuals who make a team, a mandatory parent meeting will be held and the date/time will be posted once solidified. NO players please!!

Please bring a check for $250 that will only be cashed if a volunteer slot is not completed at our annual Kill the Chill tournament in January.

The Parent Rep training will take place immediately following the parent meeting.

Volunteer Requirements

We require a check for $250 at the Parent Meeting that will only be cashed if a volunteer slot is not completed at our annual Kill the Chill tournament in January - each family will be required to fulfill one slot per player.

We prefer you volunteer for our Kill the Chill Tournament held in January instead of paying $250! We can't do this without you!

Uniform requirements for the season

Lakes provides two jerseys for the season.  Be sure to stop at the apparel table to try on the jerseys and fill out the appropriate size information and give to the board member present. This allows us to place the order immediately after team assignments. Board members will be available for assistance during the check-in process. Black shorts are required and provided by the player, no colored shorts .
