About Us
Riverdale Volleyball
Our Mission:
Riverdale Raider Volleyball is dedicated to empowering young women through training and competition. Our overall goals are to encourage and foster hard-work, dedication, and determination. The sport of volleyball is a fantastic platform in which to incorporate life lessons such as teaching teamwork, promoting healthy self-esteem, courage, and sisterhood.
What ages can girls start?
So when is the right time to start volleyball? Our Riverdale program can be started as early as 4th Grade. Our younger ages participate in a 5th & 6th Grade League. There are many schools that allow younger, newer players to participate in this league's developmental division. We will be forming the following teams in the upcoming 2021 Season; 3rd-5th Grade Team 6th Grade Team JV Middle School Team Varsity Middle School Team
When does Riverdale Volleyball take place?
Volleyball is a Fall sport. Practices/ Trouts for JV & Varsity will begin the last day of school.
Tryouts/Team Placement for younger students will take place in early May of the prior school year.
