North Star Volleyball Club
ACES Program
Why an ACES Program? At North Star, we believe in creating volleyball opportunities for every skill level and truly do not want to discourage a child from pursuing a passion for our favorite sport. Our ACES Teams will be run as "IN HOUSE" teams and a lot like a camp/clinic. With this structure, we are able provide the opportunity to most amount of players and help to provide a positive and productive environment for our community to be involved in.
What is the ACES Program? The North Star ACES program is designed to create opportunities for athletes who are starting out and developing within the sport of volleyball. Most ACES Team are made up of athletes who do not receive an offer from another club or have been evaluated by North Star and placed in the program for further development.
Who Coaches the ACES Program? The North Star ACES program will be coached by multiple coaches within our club. Each week, a new coach will provide great drills and feedback to our ACES participants.
Practices: The North Star ACES practices will be scheduled 1.5hrs/one night a week and run from October through March. Because the ACES athletes will be joining our Regional Team's practice times, ACES practices will not be at the same time or the same day each week, but the final schedule will be sent out in December.
Scrimmages: There will be scrimmages scheduled starting in December. Scrimmages will be scheduled at least 1x per month. We will scrimmage other North Star Teams as well as other club teams upon availability. Parents will be encouraged to come and watch!
Tournaments: At this time, there will be no tournaments scheduled for our ACES Teams.
