Here are 10 EXCELLENT reasons:

1. OUR RECORD OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Take a look at our record, and you will see that we are by far the most successful program in Central South Carolina.  In addition to working with athletes of all ages, SC Juniors has helped more than 30 plus athletes go on to play volleyball at the collegiate level!  Many of these players graduate debt free from college.  When you join us, you get the complete package.  We not only train you when you are young, but when you reach the National Team Level, we also help you make contacts with college coaches, help you with recruiting videos, and advertise your accomplishments through our Media Guide!

2. THE PREMIERE VOLLEYBALL TRAINING CENTER
We practice and train on the practice courts of the 2005 Men's  and Women's USA Open Volleyball Champions!  South Carolina Juniors is housed in Plex Indoor Sports, an 86,000 sq ft state-of-the-art facility in NE Columbia.  With four courts all in one great location, Plex is Columbia's volleyball mecca for the youngest learners  to the most elite of athletes.   SC Juniors is always bustling with activity whether it be singular practices on separate nets, multiple teams practicing on the four courts, or scrimmages with the entire club.

3. HIGHEST QUALITY COACHING AND TRAINING

Simply put, the best coaches are coaches who know, understand, and employ the most effective concepts of training.  At South Carolina Juniors, we take pride in assuring that you get the highest quality coaching and training.  We emphasize proper technical skills while employing the most current motor development, and movement training concepts.  In addition, the trademarks of our program include heavy repetition, and busy practices, as well as coaches who combine for a record 12 Region, District, and Division School Championships. 

 

4. MOST COMPLETE JUNIOR OLYMPIC PROGRAM
SC Juniors offers the 4th largest program in South Carolina and the largest, most established, and most complete program in the Midlands!  Starting from Kids Power, athletes have access to the resources, equipment, coaching, and facilities to take their performance to the next level.  For many, this kid to college program means graduating debt free from college! If you want the absolute best for your kids, start your children young.

 

5. PRACTICE UP TO FOUR TIMES A WEEK

Depending on the level of the team, teams normally practice two to three times a week.  In addition, players have the option to attend additional practices with teams of a similar level at no additional charge.  This year, players can sometimes practice up to 4 times a week.  Our National Teams will also experience a new program this year called Optimal Performance Training (OPT). 

 

6. TRAINING PAST THE REGULAR CLUB SEASON
We are a great choice for players who are looking for ways to continue learning and training past the regular club season.  We offer a two month program called Phase II, and we also offer opportunities to compete in the AAU National Championships held in Orlando, Florida.  South Carolina Juniors has been sending teams to AAU Nationals for FIVE consecutive years!

 

7. THE VILLAGE AT SANDHILLS
Parents, you can conveniently shop, dine, run errands, or even catch a movie while your children practice.  Plex Indoor Sport is located in the new and bustling Village at Sandhills in NE Columbia.  This development is home to restaurants, stores, grocery shops, specialty shops, movie theaters, and banks.

8. FUN AS WELL AS COMPETITIVE TOURNAMENT PLAY
Kids Power plays in scheduled in-house games and matches at Plex Indoor Sports.  Region Teams play against other clubs in the Palmetto Region (tournaments are in and around South Carolina), and National Teams play against others clubs in the Palmetto Region and beyond. 


9. LEARN LIFE LESSONS, NOT JUST VOLLEYBALL
We believe that participation in sports provides a wealth of opportunities and experiences.  Aside from developing ideals and habits related to competition, teamwork, and sportsmanship, players also have the opportunity to develop skills in a sport that can provide them with routines and norms related to long-term health-related fitness as well as physically active lifestyles.

 

10. LIFELONG FRIENDSHIPS
Athletes who practice together and play together learn a lot about building positive relationships with others.  Most athletes who play club volleyball develop close friendships and bonds with players from other backgrounds and other schools.  As a result, the friendships that begin through club often result in friendships that last a lifetime.
