ABOUT ECBVA
Our program, formerly known as the ICE Beach Volleyball Club, started in 2008 in Princeton, NJ and has since grown to over 250 players! Our eight years of experience in running a youth sand program has enabled us to put together a premier program,one which is sure to leave each player with a thorough knowledge of all aspects of beach/sand volleyball. The program is run asfollows: Each player is assigned a night to play; practice nights factor in a players availability, skill level, and age (ages 10-18 accepted). Practices will occur one day per week (5:30-8:00 pm), running from early June until late July, where players will learn all about the game of beach volleyball from our experienced staff. In addition, players over 14 years old will be required to compete in at least two 2vs2 tournaments held at the Jersey Shore all summer/every weekend though Great American Volleyball. Note: tournaments cost extra (approx. $25/player per event) as they are not directly affiliated with our program.
