Canby Volleyball Club Review

The mission of the Canby Volleyball Club is to teach the various aspects of the game to willing players who are ready to learn that there is more to the sport of volleyball than simply chasing a ball.

A non profit organization, that conducts frequent fundraising activities, Canby VBC accepts girls from grade levels four through 12 and this year has six girls teams in the following age brackets:
12 Blue, 14 Blue, 14 Blue, 16 Blue, 16 White, 18 White. Fundraising events have included staffing the concession stand at home games, selling calendars and/or Entertainment Books and ESPN Coaches Fundraising. These fundraising events are facilitated to offset club dues. Canby players who participate directly in these fundraising projects get the profits credited to their accounts.
Well-known in Canby and surrounding areas this girls' volleyball club offers its junior participants the possibility to become familiar with how to deal with the stressful situations that occur in tournament play along with the pressure that comes with being on the road.
Canby volleyball players are also taught the importance of team building, how to create and maintain team spirit and the elements of tactical play.
Like most clubs, the girls who sign up with Canby are probably interested in learning college prep volleyball skills, with most of the junior volleyball players training hard in hopes for a spot on a college volleyball roster. But even for those who may choose a different path in life, many of the skills they learn at the Canby Volleyball Club are sure to be useful elsewhere whether on the court or off. These include stress management, maintaining calm under pressure, and leadership, lessons that players take with them as they enter in the business world, other sports, and any other group projects they might undertake or participate in.
Founded in 1996, Canby is considered by many to not just be a college prep volleyball club, but as a place that provides lessons in life skills where girls have the added benefit of learning how to play volleyball.
Like most clubs, Canby club volleyball players are coached by current and retired coaches, and former and current college players willing to share their knowledge with the junior participants. Canby VBC-hosted volleyball tournaments are held one to three times a month from the beginning of January to the end of March at Ackerman Middle School and Canby High School.
Monthly board meetings are held at the local pizza joint and presided over by the president and director of the Canby Volleyball Club, Debbie Turrentine.
