YOUTH LITE - FOR 3RD-5TH GRADERS
The Lite Program is the official youth training and development program of LAVA Oaks, designed to give young athletes a taste of volleyball in a encouraging environment that mixes quality skills training with lots of fun games to build a passion for this wonderful sport. The program is coached by professional, paid coaches; it is not volunteer-based and, as such, the training value and player growth is significant.

Lava Oaks coaches are women and men of character that will be held to a high standard of ethical values. Coaches have tremendous influence over their player’s actions and behaviors and must be positive role models for Lava Oaks athletes. Our experienced and dynamic staff instruct, mold, and motivate Lava Oaks teams to success.
