Playing Volleyball in the Summer:

The absolute best way to become a better all around volleyball player is to play small sided games; doubles, triples and 4s. As 'they' say, "the game teaches the game". There are a number of opportunities to play these format games in the summer time.

  1. Wednesday evenings at Macclesfield Park River road. 6PM till 8 PM pickup doubles, triples and quads on grass. Girls and boys from Pennsbury and Council Rock. For serious players.
  2. Philly region (Hatboro Horsham area) , East Coast Volleyball runs doubles and 4s grass tournaments from late April through October. More information at  www.eastcoastvolleyball.com/index.html
  3. At the Jersey Shore. Tournaments at the Jersey shore are run by Great American Volleyball. Juniors tournament information

    Beach doubles is the best way to becoming a great all around player. The sand makes you work harder to jump and move. Doubles requires you to read and anticipate the ball in order to cover the court and you have to perform all the skills (serve, pass, set, hit, block, dig) well to succeed. So play doubles whenever possible.There are numerous sand courts in the local area.  Macclesfield, LMT park, Falls twp park,  Council Rock South HS.  They are often in a state of disrepair so call your municipality and ask them to maintain the courts.  If you use them, play doubles or triples, maybe 4s, but never more.

    Indoor summer clinics will be few and far between. Most buildings will be shut down for the summer to reduce energy consumption.
