Hello Team and Parents!

The 2017 SFV Summer Beach Program information can be viewed on the SFV’s website at:

http://www.synergyforcevbc.com/beach

The SFV Beach Program is back by popular demand following its successful inaugural season in 2016. Beach doubles is a rapidly emerging sport at both the collegiate and international levels, with more universities fielding teams every year. Beach volleyball is now the fastest growing sport in California, if not the nation. The SFV beach program provides athletes with the opportunity to learn the game while participating in a series of local tournaments. Players will dramatically improve their overall volleyball skills throughout the summer season while having a whole lot of fun outdoors with their friends.

“The beach game taught me great lessons about how to elevate the play of my teammate, or teammates, and how to anticipate and expect the ball so much more than the indoor game ever could. It taught me – even forced me – to be a much better all-around player. That allowed me to help our USA Olympic Team in many more ways than I ever could have otherwise.”

– Karch Kiraly, Head Coach USA Women’s National Team, three-time national collegiate indoor champion UCLA, Olympic Gold Medalist in both indoor and beach, FIVB’s Greatest Volleyball Player of the 20th Century.
Practices will be held twice a week all summer, Tuesday and Thursday mornings or early afternoons to beat the heat. All teams will compete in four doubles tournaments with the option to add more. All tournaments are LOCAL with no excessive travel costs commonly associated with indoor season. Tournament formats are similar to indoor – grouped by age, with pool play followed by seeding into playoff brackets. While SFV has setup a practice and tournament schedule, the program offers flexibility to accommodate family vacations, volleyball camps, and school programs. Attendance at every practice is not mandatory.

Program Staff***

Our beach program is led by SynergyForce 15 National Head Coach J.D. Hayes. Coach Hayes has played and coached volleyball since the mid 1990’s. J.D. is finishing up his 4th season with SFV and is a member of the Granite Bay High School varsity coaching staff. Individual beach team coaches will include former SynergyForce standout players and local collegiate beach players. Coach J.D. will be present at most practices and tournaments to supervise and assist throughout the summer.

Age Groups: 12’s, 13’s, 14’s, 15’s, 16’s, 17’s and 18’s – Mixed age partners must compete in the age group of the older player. Age eligibility is determined the same as the previous indoor season, so players are eligible to play in the same age group as this past club season.

Practices: All teams will practice Tuesdays & Thursdays May 30th – Aug 3rd in the mornings or early afternoons to avoid the hottest part of the day. Practices will be held at a West Roseville public park with two outdoor sand courts. Details will be announced following sign-ups.

Tournaments: All tournaments will be played in the Greater Sacramento area.
