About Us

Keweenaw Select is a youth volleyball club sanctioned through USA Volleyball and the North Country Region and we are looking forward to a great fifth season in 2009.

Several years ago volleyball in this area was virtually non-existent. We all have seen it grow over the years into a competitive sport that is helping young women grow and mature as athletes, thanks to the growing programs in area high schools. Now it is time to raise the bar again with the development of a competitive Junior Olympic volleyball club.

This club is open to all girls ages 12-18, regardless of volleyball experience. The goal of Keweenaw Select is to promote youth volleyball and encourage the growth of youth volleyball in this area by providing instruction in the fundamentals of volleyball and opportunities to play competitively in organized youth leagues and tournaments.

KSVBC Mission:

  • Teach fundamental volleyball skills to develop the best all around players
  • Prepare volleyball athletes for high school varsity volleyball
  • Encourage athletes to consider a collegiate volleyball career and provide visibility for collegiate recruiting
  • Develop lasting friendships between athletes, coaches, and parents
