What is 863 Elite Volleyball Academy Mini Club Season?
ELITE MINI is an 863 Elite Volleyball fall training program dedicated to our younger athletes.
ELITE MINI training focuses on the fundamentals of volleyball, training for the all-around player, physical aspects and overall team concepts.
Our program is designed to train players of all levels. We work with beginner to advanced players creating a strong understanding of volleyball basics and fundamentals.
ELITE MINI will play a huge role in the continuous development of our athletes.
ELITE MINI teams are created considering both the age and skill level of each athlete. The teams play competitive, volleyball clubs and experience tournament-like competition. The goal for these players is to put them on the correct path to play at a higher, more competitive level during their school and regular club season. We love this part of our season because it lets us grow together as a program and reinforces our academy culture.
ELITE MINI focuses on the athlete's overall abilities, development of fundamental skills, team building skills, and practice discipline.
This is done through practices and tournaments where the athlete will have fun while learning the game of volleyball.

Playing Time Defined
ELITE MINI is not REC, it is to prepare the athlete for Competitive Club.
Playing time is determined at the sole discretion of the coaching staff and is not guaranteed. It is based on a variety of factors, including but not limited to, a lineup for each competition that will lead to success on the court. Playtime is a very complex determination. It includes the coach’s opinion, the athlete’s ability, the athlete’s potential, the team’s needs/game strategy at the moment, the momentum of the game, the number of subs remaining, and the team’s needs for the future. The coach will not be required to defend his/her thought process or conclusions in these determinations, and it is improper for a parent to make such a request.
