Each team will have a weekly practice on Thursdays to build skills and prepare, followed by games on Saturday mornings where players can put their practice into action. Our focus is on teaching the game, encouraging sportsmanship, and creating a positive experience for every child — whether they’re brand new to volleyball or looking to grow their abilities.

Program Highlights

  • Weekly Thursday evening practices at 5:30-6:30pm

  • Saturday morning games at 9am against other Mahaska YMCA teams

  • Emphasis on skill development, teamwork, and sportsmanship

  • Welcoming environment for beginners and experienced players
