[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also sounds a bit like VolleyViet: https://www.volleyviet.com/ although their teams do travel a bit. [/quote]
VolleyViet is a perfect example that you can make volleyball affordable even in Virginia. [/quote]

There is literally only one of them and there are only a handful of teams and you see like 100 kids show up for what are realistically only 8 open spots.

There just aren't enough good volunteer coaches.[/quote]

Let’s be real, does VV ever have 8 open spots? Everyone knows they take their returning players.  We made the mistake of only going to their tryouts once and even that year we were warned not to bother. [/quote]
I was at the boy's tryout for the 15 and 16 team and people thought there were realistically 8 spots between the two teams

I am looking at their roster compared to last year rosters and most teams (boys and girls) are only about 60-70% returning players.

They have a high preference for returning players because the kids are all friends and the families are all friends and that is a pretty important part of how they can continue to get volunteers.  
Some of the coaches are college students that played on a team.  
It's a different vibe, winning is only kind of important (they just have to win enough so the kids are having a good time).  it's not where you go if you are trying to get recruited to nebraska or UCLA.
The ones that are really good and want to get recruited somewhere move on to teams with better exposure.  No problems.[/quote]
