The United States Youth Volleyball League provides every child between the ages of 7 and 15 a chance to learn and play volleyball in a fun, safe, and supervised environment.

One of the main tenets of the program is to encourage children to do the best with their abilities. With an emphasis on positive reinforcement, the program seeks to build confidence and self-esteem in each child.

The USYVL, a co-ed league, is divided into four divisions: ages 7-8, 9-10, 11-12 and 13-15. A player may be moved up one division to accommodate his/her instructional needs. Programs operate twice per week with practice days during the week and games held on the weekends, usually Saturdays.
