The ACTFOR League is designed to encourage participation for all kids ages 7-17 who want to play Volleyball. Above all, the league is directed at children/teens with the idea of fun participation and excitement while learning the sport of Volleyball in a positive environment. Some specific purposes for the league are:

  • To give each child the opportunity to learn the importance of good sportsmanship and fair play competition.
  • Teach the basic rules, skills, and techniques involved in Volleyball so each child can play and enjoy the game.
  • To allow each child to meet in friendly competition with other children of the same age.
  • To expose players to different styles of coaching strategies to further develop their skills.
