CLUB PARENT RESOURCES

Volleyball is a sport built on cooperation — and that's exactly what makes it so special. At Nova, we believe the ability to work together is just as important as the ability to compete. Success is a journey, not a destination, and we ask that the support you show from the sidelines reflects the same positive, growth-focused environment we work hard to build every day in practice.

COLLEGE RECRUITING

Navigating the college recruiting process can feel overwhelming — but you don't have to do it alone. Whether your athlete is eyeing a DI program, exploring DII, DIII, or NAIA options, or just starting to learn how it all works, we're here to help. There are hundreds of universities across the country with women's volleyball programs, and our goal is to make sure every Nova athlete who wants to compete at the next level knows exactly what her options are and how to get there.

OUR STORY

Nova Volleyball Club was founded by Coach Machan in Long Beach, California in 1996. What followed was a decorated run on the national stage — 3 USAV Junior National Open Championships, 5 Silver Medals, 2 Bronze Medals, and 27 top-3 finishes in USAV National Qualifiers. That spirit of competing at the highest level and commitment to growth on and off the court, is what drives everything we do at Nova.

Today, that same standard drives everything we do in Connecticut. Our coaches are experienced, knowledgeable, and deeply committed to developing athletes in a fun, safe, and structured environment — whether your athlete is just learning the game, training to make a high school team, or pursuing a college roster spot.
