2026-27 Girls Club Volleyball Season

Welcome to the Start of the 2026-27 Girls Club Volleyball Season at LIVBC.

At LIVBC we offer the opportunity to play on either a TRAVEL or REGIONAL team. Travel teams attend multi-day out of state tournaments that require overnight hotel stays and sometimes air travel, while Regional teams play mostly 1-day tournaments within the GEVA Region with one overnight tournament. The differences will be discussed during the Zoom parents meeting prior to tryouts (details to follow). Players will indicate whether they are interested in Travel or Regional when registering.

Tryouts for Travel and Regional teams will be held on Sunday, August 9th, Monday, August 10th, and Tuesday, August 11th (See details below) at The Sports Arena in St. James. Please read the schedule carefully to be sure you attend on the correct day and time. Players should attend both days. The tryout fee, which covers both days, is $100.

A MAKEUP tryout for players who are not able to attend will be scheduled if needed. To be eligible to attend the Makeup, you must complete the registration form and note your conflict in the Comments section, and then we will contact you when the details are finalized.

Tryout fees are non-refundable.

As noted on the FAQ page, the USAV age definitions differ from the NYS school ages, so players with a late birthday (after July 1st) have the option to play down one grade.  Players should generally attend the tryout that matches their grade, but if you are interested in playing down, please note that in the Comment section on the registration form.
