Anyone know anything about the club scene in the DC area? DD is a good athlete and is giving up basketball to play vball as a freshman at high school, and if she makes varsity is keen to play club. I haven't much of an idea where to start, any advice? |
It depends on where you live. There are a lot of volleyball clubs in the DC area. |
NP. My dd interested in volleyball too. Can you list some of the clubs? Have had hard time finding any. We are in NW DC. |
The most popular volleyball club in DC is Metro Volleyball Club. |
Could you ask some of the families of kids on your daughter's current VB school team? |
My daughter played club for five years, in addition to playing JV for one year and varsity for three at her local public HS. She's off to college (tomorrow — yipes!) to play Division III for her top-choice school. There is no question that volleyball played a role in her college search, entirely to her advantage. I'd be happy to chat further if you'd like — see the address below. If not, best of luck with your daughter. It's a fantastic sport!

That is one hell of a good question. Lol. |
