Silver State Athletic Center

With players participating from more than 30 middle schools and high schools in the region, Silver State Volleyball offers teams for every level of play regardless of age or experience. Silver State offers a quality training experience for players of all levels. Our staff-comprised of many top former and current collegiate players, college coaches and current high school coaches utilizes a "team" training philosophy by having multiple coaches' work with individual teams and players. Many of our teams practice together at least once a week, which provides the very best training atmosphere for each athlete. Our primary goal is to provide the best training experience possible to players in order to help them reach their highest potential. Meanwhile we work to instill discipline, integrity and respect which leads to strong character.

Silver State VBC has distinguished itself nationally by finishing 3rd at the 2002 USA Junior Olympic National Championships-17s Division, 6th at the 2007 Volleyball Festival-16s Division, and 8th at the 2005 Volleyball Festival-17s Division. In 2009, the 18s team finished 19th at the Junior Olympics after qualifying with a 2nd place finish at the Far Western's Qualifier.

One of the Club's strong points is helping individual players earn a college scholarship. The staff includes a full time College Recruiting Coordinator Jim Saari, whose main task is to work with players and parents to navigate through the college recruiting process. Since joining the staff in 2006, he has assisted over 50 players in finding college opportunities. To further enhance each individual member's volleyball experience, our website offers news about former members, training tips, information on upcoming camps and clinics, important training and college recruiting articles, and other information designed to enhance each player's volleyball experience. We strive to help each athlete reach her personal goal - whether it is to play at the collegiate level or to succeed in other future challenges.
