JUNIOR DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS (JDP)
ABOUT
Discover the game. Build your skills. Love every session.
Whether you’re just starting out or dreaming of playing elite volleyball, the ProVolley’s Junior Development Program is here to guide your journey — step by step, term by term.
We’ve designed this program to do more than teach volleyball. It’s about building confidence, developing physical skills, and most importantly — having fun in every session.
Why Join the Junior Development Program?
At ProVolley, we’re passionate about helping young athletes fall in love with the game. Our goal is to:
- Teach volleyball the right way — with great coaches and a proven pathway;
- Support every skill level, from brand-new players to future stars;
- Create a positive and inclusive environment where kids thrive;
- Help players grow, not just on the court, but off it too.
You’ll train with athletes at your level, learn at your own pace, and see real progress — all while enjoying the energy of a team sport.
PROGRAM LEVELS
We run three levels of training to suit every player. Not sure which one is right? No problem — we can help you find the best fit, and our coaches regularly assess players to make sure they’re in the right group.
🟢 BEGINNERS
Learn the basics. Build your confidence. Have fun.
If you’ve never played volleyball before — or just want to learn the right way — this is the place to start. Our beginner sessions focus on core skills and introduce players to how the game works, all in a fun and encouraging setting.
You’ll learn:
- Build basic volleyball skills: passing, serving, setting
- Improve coordination, movement, and teamwork
- Learn rules, positions, and simple game play
Perfect for players with little or no volleyball experience (no need to have played at school or in a club).
🟡 INTERMEDIATE
Level up your skills. Play with purpose.
Ready to go beyond the basics? In this level, you’ll build on your foundation and start playing more structured games. We focus on consistency, teamwork, and applying your skills in real match situations.
You’ll develop:
- Refine technique and control under pressure
- Develop game strategies and court awareness
- Strengthen footwork, communication, and consistency
Perfect for players with some school or club experience, or who’ve completed beginner-level training.
🔴 ADVANCED
Train like a competitor. Perform like a pro.
If you’re already playing at a high level — school, club, rep, or SVL — this is where we push your game to the next level. Advanced sessions are fast-paced, technical, and focused on preparing players for elite competition.
You’ll focus on:
- Execute advanced tactics and make fast, strategic decisions
- Master jump serves, explosive movement, and high-speed gameplay
- Excel in positional roles and integrated team systems
- Build elite-level fitness and develop a strong competitive mindset
Perfect for athletes competing or ready to compete at a representative or elite school level.
