What People Are Saying About CJV

“I cannot say enough great things about CJV. It was really such a transformative time in my life just in the sense of personal development, leadership, and also technically in volleyball. I feel like the professionalism of coaches and their emphasis in technique and doing the right form set me up so well for the next steps.”

“Being a part of the CJV family for over ten years taught me what it means to have a positive, close-knit community that truly cares about every player’s success. The growth I experienced as a player throughout my volleyball career was due to my travel coaches’ dedication, integrity, and passion to make me a better player. My travel coaches inspired me to become a better athlete and supported me as a person on and off the court. CJV will always be my second family!”
