HISTORY........For the past 9 years, NKYVC has been building a nationally recognized club volleyball program from the ground up by moving one age division. NKYVC is the most comprehensive youth training organization in Greater Cincinnait and is one of few in the USA that provides training in every age division from Kindergarten-12th Grade for Girls and Boys Volleyball. We are proud to say we "train" our athletes using a proven formula and training regime to compete nationally and because of that training we are recognized as a nationally competitive club and one of the premier clubs in Greater Cincinnati and the Ohio Valley Region (OVR). Every year for last 8, NKYVC has qualified the majority of it's top teams for the USA Girl's Junior Olympic National Championships-this is no easy accomplishment when you compare NKYVC to the types of teams and clubs represented at the USA nationals. Some clubs are enormous in size, come from huge metropolitan cities, have big name sponsors and hundreds of applicants trying out for their top teams. Yet amongst them you will find NKYVC competing head to head! The 2007-2008 season was no different with the 12-1, 13-1, 14-1 (Open),15-1 & 17-1 (Open) Tsunami teams qualifying for USAV Nationals. As a result of NKYVC team performance and training these NKYVC athletes have committed to playing college volleyball. (click here for more info) Since joining the Ohio Valley Region in 2000, NKYVC has positioned itself as one of the top clubs in the OVR. For 8 straight years, NKYVC has finished in qualifying slots at the majority of age divisions at the OVR National Bid Qualifier. In addition most of our teams place in the medals at the OVR Regional Championships. The OVR is the largest region in the country with hundreds of teams at each age division making the local and regional events extremely competitive for all levels of volleyball. Most of our NKYVC Open and Club teams win or finish very high at every OVR competition. CORE VALUES........We recognize that it takes more than one individual to make a club successful and that the development of our athletes is like a journey. It takes direction, it takes a well thought out plan, it takes a collaboration of like minds working toward the same goals recognizing that each year is a another critical step in the path toward achievement and accomplishment. The journey leads nowhere without every player, parent, coach, administrator and fan believing in the mission & goal. COACHING EXCELLENCE........To do this NKYVC only employs experienced and motivated coaches that are good people. People who will make excellent role models for today's young athletes. The NKYVC coaching staff consists of some of the areas top USA Junior Olympic, High School and Grade School Coaches and Decorated Athletes. The coaching staff is tenured, experienced, dedicated, qualified and motivated! The majority of coaches have played Division I Volleyball/Sports and on average each has been coaching over 12 years. Our coaching staff is dedicated to providing a learning environment that is consistent, demanding, motivated and of the highest possible standards to help our athletes accomplish their goals. That is why we can say we train our athletes and we are good at it! NKYVC TRAINING THAT WORKS.......We believe we provide the best training environment in Greater Cincinnati for every age division from K-3rd, 10U, USAV 11-18's-we invite all of you to come to one of our many clinics or camps and experience the difference in organization, drilling, communication and athlete development. SWEET SUCCESS........Success for NKYVC & our teams has not been easy-success has come the good old-fashioned way...we earned it! We don't recruit, we "try-out" and "earn" a position on a team. We think that concept is fair and healthy and that the athletes learn a valuable life lesson along the way. We realize NKYVC may not be for everyone but we are certainly open to everyone-we look to train athletes that are committed, focused, hard working and dream as "BIG" as we do. SO WHAT'S YOUR DREAM......NKYVC wants to take you there!! |
