Girls Open

Open Division Club Level

National Club Level and Elite, these teams are for athletes who want to pursue the highest level of play, those who are pursuing National Bids to USAV or AAU Nationals, Collegiate Scholarships, and Junior National team rosters.  Skill levels range from Intermediate to Advanced.  All players understand rotational sequence, offensive concepts (i.e., 5-1, 6-2), and defensive positions and can apply them in competition. Game and player strategies are well understood (i.e., running offensive plays, identifying opponent weaknesses, reading the opponent during a volley, etc.) but may still be in refinement.   

Teams will practice four to six hours a week and will compete in the Open Division of the Arizona Region of USA Volleyball. Open teams will also compete in four National Qualifiers and several multi-day tournaments during the season. The season runs from November to July. These are elite-level teams offering the highest level of competition and training, requiring the highest level of commitment. Open-level teams require each player to place volleyball before any other sport or activity.
