No Dinx /NCVA High Performance - Indoor
The High Performance program is the NCVA’s ‘All-Star’ team. Players from clubs across the region will have a chance to become a region ‘All Stars’!
Age definitions will determine which team a player will join, with Boys offering U17- U19, and Girls offering a U17-U20 (breakdown below). The NCVA hopes to field two teams per age group.
The goal of the High Performance Program for the last 22 years is to provide volleyball athletes with the best coaching and competition available in Northern California.
