Registration open for volleyball leagues

The United States Youth Volleyball League (USYVL) announced that registration is open for the 2023 Fall Leagues. These programs provide a fun, safe and supervised environment for boys and girls to learn and play volleyball, says a press release from USYVL.

The Morgan Hill USYVL program runs from Sept. 14—Nov. 4, on Thursdays from 5:30- 6:30pm and Saturdays 9:00-10:00am at El Toro Elementary in Morgan Hill.

The eight-week Fall Leagues provide instruction to boys and girls ages 7-15 that is designed to teach basic volleyball skills in a positive environment. The leagues operate twice per week throughout the season. Practices and games operate in a co-ed format and offer participants the opportunity to develop self-esteem and confidence, the press release continues.

Programs fill quickly, so early registration is recommended to reserve a spot for your child. Registering early also allows participants to save with the regular registration pricing available until Aug. 1. The registration fee includes a uniform t-shirt and participation medal for each participant.
