Our Travel Program

WHAT IS THE PROGRAM ABOUT?

The TRAVEL program is designed for the advanced athlete and their family looking for a slightly lighter commitment than our national program. Our travel teams practice 2 times per week and play in 2-day tournaments against some of the highest competition in the Carolinas, Southeast, and Mid-Atlantic region. Piedmont VBC created this hybrid program for athletes to have a similar training and structure of our national program without the same intense time and travel commitment. Teams will have one coach and one lead trainer and train under our Master Coaching system.

WHAT AGE GROUPS PLAY AT THIS LEVEL?

Our travel program is for 13U to 18U players.

WHAT'S NEW FOR OUR TRAVEL PROGRAM

  • *NEW* 2 - 3 Practices per Week

Travel teams typically practice on 2 days of the week. This season, travel teams practice on Mondays/ Wednesdays or Tuesdays/Thursdays for 2 hours of court training. Athletes will receiving the following each week:

  • Individual Positional Training
  • Team Training and Competition
  • Mental, Social, and Leadership Training 
     
  • *NEW* Individual/ Group Training Model

We acknowledge that volleyball is a team sport. However, we believe that if we train the athlete first, our teams will be deeper and more well rounded. With a combination of individual training and team training, we will maximize both individual and team growth.

Piedmont VBC is  incredibly blessed to have not one, but two phenomenal facilities that we call home. At the Greensboro Sportsplex, we have up to 7 volleyball courts and at Proehlific Park up to 3 courts. By having these spaces, we have the flexibility to create the best training environment, and not jam a bunch of teams on top of each other. We are able to provide every team with individual court time; coaches are able to work with players on specific individual and team skills.
