What is club volleyball?

The club season runs from November through April, sometimes longer.  Tryouts are in July and teams are generally formed in the following week or two.

Teams practice 2-3 times per week depending on the level of team, generally 2 hours per practice and usually during the weeknight evenings. Tournaments will be held on the weekends and are generally all-day or even multi-day affairs. It's important to know, a tournament day is generally a full one.  Teams often meet between 6:00am and 7:00am and often don't return to until 6:00pm or 7:00pm.

Mississippi MATRIX Volleyball competes under the USA Volleyball organization, in leagues governed by the Gulf Coast Regional Volleyball Association.

Teams are generally 8 to 10 players per team. In some cases, teams may have an assistant coach or multiple assistant coaches, as we try to get multiple coaches involved with every player.

Competitive Travel-
At MATRIX we have 3 different levels to our travel teams.
Regional Teams, Elite Teams, and National Teams.
Regional teams have a regional tournament schedule that requires the least amount of traveling. Whereas National teams have a more national travel schedule and requires more travel to tournaments.

Along with Training Academy MATRIX also offers a program called Grassroots. Grassroots is a program for ages 5- 10.
