We are VERY excited to make region history with our first year of participation in this elite event by taking two teams — 17u and 19u boys.

Practices start this weekend so, watch for updates along this journey. And, to all the athletes and coaches, we wish you the best as you come together as a team for the first time!

50 DAYS AWAY! 🏐⭐

In just 50 days, some of the top young athletes from across the country will come together for the 2026 USA Volleyball All-Star Championships in Columbus, OH!

The road to All-Stars has been filled with hard work, dedication, and unforgettable moments. Soon, these athletes will have the opportunity to represent their regions, compete alongside elite talent, and create memories that will last a lifetime.

The countdown continues. The teams are preparing. The excitement is building.

See you in 50 days!

We're seeing more advertisements in our news feed from clubs hosting camps and open gyms. Does that mean it's officially summer break for all?!

Though we don't post individual shares on our social media for these types of things, we do like to periodically offer a centralized spot for everyone to share their flyers. So, please use the comments section of this post to share your summer camp details. We'll get things started…

It’s coming… July 12th, 1-3pm @ Legacy VTC.

Last summer Gateway hosted the largest region hosted camp and we expect nothing less, again, in 2026. Registration will be opening soon and you’ll want to secure a spot for your kiddo(s) right away. So, keep checking in for that announcement but, until then, save the date!

*If interested in hosting your own Try Volleyball camp, please, reach out to [email protected] and [email protected] to get your clinic registered and receive resources.

Gateway was well represented at the Adult Nationals over the past week in Orlando!

We enjoyed watching all the live feeds from the athletes and even caught a few exciting highlights posted by USAV — including watching Dat Ace Doe take the Silver in the Women’s AA division. So much skill and grit across the teams.

Congratulations, everyone!! There’s no doubt you had a blast on and off the court.

*If you have pics/clips that we missed, please share in the comments so we can celebrate you!

As they embark on the next stage of their academic journey, we offer our warmest congratulations and look forward to seeing the positive impact we know they'll make. Please take a moment with us to applaud their hard work and wish them the best.

Did you know…

The AVCA Men's College Coaches Recruiting Panel achieved outstanding success, providing invaluable insights for emerging volleyball talent during their educational presentation earlier this week. The panel (consisting of coaches from NCAA, NAIA, and Two-Year College divisions) answered questions about recruiting for high school athletes, parents, club and high school coaches as well as addressed topics including: academic criteria, scholarship opportunities by division, communication between coaches and prospects, sharing video, and much more.

For those unable to attend, a recording and supplementary resources are available at:

Thank you, AVCA and all contributors, for your dedication to enhancing volleyball education and supporting players, families, and coaches.
