The Center is excited to offer an opportunity for athletes to join our Center Summer Volleyball Youth Leagues.

HOW YOUTH LEAGUE WORKS - 2 Ways to Register​
​1. TEAM REGISTRATION: Athletes are to create a team of 6 players within their appropriate age category and can register as a single team. Teams just need to ensure they have a minimum of 6 players always present on their night of play.
Registrations will be taken on a first come, first serve basis for both sessions.
*Leagues will run with a minimum of 24 athletes (4 teams worth).
​
2. INDIVIDUAL REGISTRATION: Athletes can register as an individual and will be placed on a Center created youth league team. Individual athlete registrants are NOT guaranteed a spot on a team, but will be considered for an teams needing extra players or in scenarios where The Center needs to create an extra team for even numbers sake in a league.
*EMAIL karly@evpcenter.com if you have a child that would like to register as an individual.
