Get to know NOC Volleyball Athletics Club

Much more than club volleyball

By Jessica W. January 28, 2022

As the fall of 2021 came I was searching for an extra curricular sport for my teenage daughter.  The cancellation of all school organized sports since March 2020 was really showing it's toll on my energetic, sports driven daughter.  I started doing my homework to find some local volleyball teams or games in the area and quickly found out that what I was looking for was hard to find.  I found a few places that offered affordable classes through a city but they were small, quickly filled up with waiting lists or not in my daughters age range. I did what every desperate parent does and reached out on social media.  I found some more information and was introduced to the world of Club.  WOW...it wasn't what I was expecting or what we were looking for.  So I started giving up.  Thankfully, I received a very nice personal message from the founder Matt of NOC Volleyball.  He heard what I wanted for my daughter and he had the answer.  NOC offers clinics that are affordable and you can pick and choose which ones your child will participate in.  NO contracts or commitments.  So far my daughter has been to 3 skills clinics and we are looking forward to more.  Here is more information from their website and I hope you will consider this great organization for your child if volleyball is something they want to explore.

Clinics

NOC has fantastic clinics for boys and girls ages 6-18 that will improve all skillsets.

All Skills Clinics are suggested for those wanting to try volleyball for the first time and for those looking to improve their techniques.  Players will learn all the essential volleyball skills such as passing, setting, serving, hitting, digging, blocking and diving.  Detailed instruction and fun drills are facilitated by experienced coaching staff.

Our Mini Leagues are for intermediate or advanced players only, 6 months of previous clinic, camp or league experience is recommended.  The first half of class will focus on a specific skill (passing, setting, hitting, serving, etc) and during the second half the players will compete in 2 on 2, 3 on 3 and 4 on 4 games.  Court awareness, offense and defensive systems and 2-3 ball contact will be emphasized.

Our Developmental Teams are also for intermediate or advanced players only, 6 months of previous clinic, camp or league experience is recommended. The first half of class will focus on a specific skill (passing, setting, hitting, serving, etc) and during the second half the players will compete in 6 on 6 games. Court awareness, offense and defensive systems and the importance of 2-3 ball contact will be emphasized.
