our
leading
team

The latest research on learning sports like volleyball shows that learning is highly context- and task-specific, which is why our coaches prioritize making practice activities as game-like as possible and maximizing each player's meaningful interactions with the ball. Our coaches create realistic scenarios to challenge athletes while never losing sight of the fact that we are coaching people, not just volleyball players. We believe that athletes need to know we care about them before they care about what we know, and we measure our success by how many of our athletes return to play again each year.

Excellence At the next level

The AVBA Youth Volleyball Club was formed in 1996. Almost 30 years ago we pioneered the delivery of a quality volleyball experience for girls in the Ankeny area. AVBA continues to serve our local communities today and has expanded its influence to the entire metro area.

We at AVBA believe the foundation to any volleyball club’s success is having a consistent learning environment and culture in place. To that end, our club’s philosophy is to have a formal teaching structure in place that forms the foundation for how our parent coaches are trained to develop our athletes. While each team’s personality will vary based on the individual coaches and personnel involved, the overall approach and drive for excellence will be guided by AVBA’s philosophy. The benefits of such an approach are numerous. Coaches and players alike will speak the same language, and more often than not be on the same page about the expectations for success. The members of the AVBA community will espouse the same beliefs, ideals, and ambitions.
