Junior Sports

Junior Girls and Boys Volleyball Program
This excellent program is the area leader in providing good fundamental volleyball skills to girls and boys in central Illinois. We
encourage all potential players to participate. The focus of the Eastside Volleyball Club, Inc. is to increase the level of play of
volleyball throughout the area, including an Elite program. Visit www.eastsidevb.com or contact Tim at timvs@sbcglobal.net or call
(309) 699-8738.

After great success in 2016 the Eastside Volleyball club will again partner the with RIVERPLEX SPORTS PERFORMANCE. Up to 2
nights per week the girls will work with their staff pre/post practice developing the sport specific qualities required to reach their
full potential. Last year we averaged 3 inch improvements on vertical jump, 3.2 inches on their approach, 10 inches on their broad
jump, and a 1.3 second decrease in change of direction time. Staff has elite level schooling, certifications, and experience working
with middle school through DI SEC volleyball teams. Not only will you become more powerful, fast, and efficient on the court, but
will also significantly reduce your chances for injury. In addition, we provide Mental Strength training to complement the strength
training and give athletes that competitive edge.
