HS travel will be expanded for the Spring 2024

League Overview

High School students have an opportunity to play competitive volleyball in the HS Travel league. The league is ideal for athletes with HS varsity and Club level experience (strong JV players could also make teams) looking to keep their skills fresh prior to high school team tryouts in August. The 4 HS Travel teams will play against each other and possibly against outside travel volleyball teams and local club volleyball teams.

Active club volleyball players are not eligible to play HS Travel -- this ensures that as many other girls as possible can have a similar competitive volleyball experience. Club players are always welcome to coach a team and join the referee program.

Format

• The HS Travel teams are formed after an open tryout. Coaches will draft candidates to 4 teams composed of 10-12 players each. A draft is employed to ensure the teams are balanced.
• Players do not have to live in McLean to try out
• Practices are held once a week for 90-minutes in McLean-area gyms
• An optional weekly clinic will be available for all travel players
• Matches are held at least once a week on Saturdays for 90 minutes (5 sets). They are typically played in McLean gyms once a week but may be elsewhere in the area if involving outside teams
• MYA Volleyball plans to find additional scrimmage opportunities for HS Travel teams with outside travel teams and local club teams
