We hope that you and your families have a wonderful holiday season filled with joy, laughter, and special memories. We look forward to seeing you on the court in the new year.

Upcoming Spring Season – Join us as a player or a volunteer!

Volleyball is a great sport for young people to play and we are excited to announce that registration is now open for our spring youth volleyball program.

Our instructional program is open to players of all skill levels, including beginners. We welcome players ages 7-15 and offer a fun and supportive environment where they can learn and improve their skills.

In addition to our experienced Clinicians (Head Volleyball Instructors), we are also looking for parents who are interested in volunteering as coaches and assistant coaches for our teams. This is a great way for parents to get involved and help their child’s team succeed.

If you have a child who is interested in playing volleyball, or if you are interested in volunteering as a coach, please sign up online and you will be contacted by a Program Coordinator. For more info about volunteering, please visit https://www.usyvl.org/get-involved/volunteer-positions/ We look forward to seeing you on the court!

Thank You For 20 Years Leslie!

Volunteers and parents are the heart of our Organization. The experience we provide in learning the game of volleyball, sportsmanship, and pursuing athleticism could not happen without our tremendous network or people contributing their time and expertise. We rarely get the opportunity to recognize those who have participated for long periods of time as they move on as their children progress, life limits their availability, and many other reasons.

At the conclusion of this year’s session in South Lake Tahoe, we were able to recognize someone who regardless of what life has thrown to her – job changes, relocation within the Bay area as well as to Tahoe, retirement, etc. – yet has steadfastly volunteered her time and effort to USYVL. Whether a Clinician in Mountain View, Sunnyvale, and our one time largest site San Jose, or as a member of our Board of Directors for several years, Leslie Martensen has spent the past 20 years helping to fulfill our mission. We thank her for 20 years of giving and presented her with this plaque of recognition!
