GIRLS TRYOUT INTEREST FORM (CLICK HERE)
With Santa Clara County currently in the “Orange” Tier, we will be running our tryouts under the guidance for gyms, including mandatory mask wearing at all times, screening all entrants entering the gym and requiring an email for possible contact tracing.
For team training we will adhere to guidance of limited cohorts and pods to limit the number of people athletes interact with on a regular basis.
- Maintain our safety protocols including, hand sanitation stations, temperature checks, consistent 12 player pods on individual courts, disinfected balls and equipment
- Adjust protocols if we are able to expand into competitive play if the guidelines allow or to draw back if deemed necessary by the county or state.
- Work with our experienced and eager coaches at all age levels with the same high level of training City Beach coaches are known for.
At all levels, regardless of the amount of playing time, each player receives the same quality instruction from coaches who care about their development and foster a positive and sportsmanlike environment. We have a volleyball training and management structure in place that helps coaches collaborate and ensures that each player is being provided the highest quality of coaching. We strive to teach players how to learn, apply themselves fully, develop habits that will make them successful, and how to play the game of volleyball. For a further description of the types of volleyball teams we have, scroll down. Tryouts and sign ups begin in November. Official practices for National and Regional teams begin in December while our Area and Youth League (“Rec”) teams start after the holidays in January.
Our volleyball teams compete in the tournaments run by the WCVBA (West Coast Volleyball Association), the Northern California Volleyball Association (NCVA) and Amateur Athletic Union (AAU). We offer National teams that will travel to National Qualifiers and play in the WCVBA. We have Area teams and Youth League teams that do not require much travel and play in the AAU Pacific, Youth League, and local tournaments. We also offer a Regional team which plays only in large, monthly tournaments offered by the NCVA (Kick Off, Presidents Day, etc…)and has one traveling tournament to the Far Westerns (Reno) National Qualifier. Invitational (White) teams play both Power League and Premier League Teams at these events.
City Beach is a JVA Member Club

NATIONAL (POWER) TEAMS
These volleyball teams will put team goals before all else and are managed with our “Performance-Based” playtime standard. Which means the best player for the job will play and all other players must be ready and willing to support the team’s goal before any personal agendas. This competitive model allows the team to perform as well as possible at national qualifiers, in the WCVBA and Junior Nationals.
REGIONAL (WHITE) TEAMS
Our competitive Development teams manage playtime in a manner that supports the development of skills and traits that help players learn to control their success. Competitive development teams teach players to make greater commitments and develop the habits that will maximize their abilities. Regional teams will play against Power League and Premier League teams at all the NCVA’s largest events.
AREA LEAGUE TEAMS
Our Area teams manage playtime in a manner that supports the development of skills and traits that help players learn to control their success. Teams that follow the competitive development model teach players to make greater commitments and develop the habits that will maximize their abilities. They also compete in the local AAU Pacific League and the Bayview Tournament
YOUTH LEAGUE-RECREATIONAL TEAMS (ages: 8 – 14)
These volleyball teams compete in 3 Youth League tournaments. Practice is every Friday and every other Wednesday. “Rec” teams (as they are known) are all about development and fun. Players will receive excellent instruction in a low stress environment. Play time is equally distributed. Teams start in January and run until April. The Youth-Rec team does not have a tryout, for this team players sign up in November. The players are then divided in to teams by age and skill.
Teams are primarily created by grade.
If you are U15 eligible or in 9th grade but believe the rec program will be best for your development and enjoyment of the game, please contact Joe Fuston (Joe@citybeach.com) and we will discuss and find the best spot for you!
You do not need to tryout to join a rec team.
Financial Aid
Unfortunately we are not in the position this year to offer Financial Aid. It saddens us that due to COVID we will not have the ability this year to provide help to families that we have been so fortunate to help in the past years. That being said we are working to put together a fundraising committee that would help guide families and provide them the opportunity to offset some of the club fees.
We have the ability to extend payments past the season conclusion to lessen the monthly burden. These are difficult times for everyone and we wish we could help more so if you have creative solutions to help families that need some help for this season, we want your voice on our fundraising committee.
