About us
Our Mission… To develop the strengths needed to compete at the highest level in the sport of volleyball, and to build on those strengths to help prepare our players for the game of life.
Our History… Our club began as the Indiana Volleyball Academy in 1997 and was known as Indy Attac from 1998-2001. Starting with only 7 teams, we have grown to over 25 teams and a coaching staff of 32. In 2004, Indy Juniors added seven middle school teams to our program. Throughout our nine years, over 50 Indy Juniors players in have gone on to play college volleyball and hundreds of student-athletes have reached their goal of representing their high schools at the varsity level. We feel honored to have been involved in the lives of so many extraordinary student-athletes.
Core Strengths…. At Indy Juniors, we pride ourselves in our core strengths: quality coaching at all levels, a positive club atmosphere, and assisting student-athletes in playing volleyball at the collegiate level. We believe these core strengths allow our players to develop faster and at a higher level, making them more successful in volleyball and in the game of life.
Quality Coaching at all Levels… We firmly believe that great volleyball players are developed in practice by quality coaches, so we stress the importance of our exceptional coaching staff. All of our National teams and the majority of our Regional teams have two strong coaches to train and develop every player on the team. Our coaches include former All-Americans, Division I college coaches, former college athletes, and some of the top high school coaches in the state. Our staff brings countless years of coaching and playing experience, in an effort to develop each player to her full potential. Our National Coaches are second to none, but we also know the value of quality coaching for our younger players and regional teams. At Indy Juniors everyone gets the training they need from a lineup of quality coaching at all levels.
A Positive Club Atmosphere… At Indy Juniors, we believe that continuing to create a positive club atmosphere for all of our players, coaches, and families is extremely important. Our coaches build and develop players through technical training, constructive critique and encouraging motivation. We demand a lot of our players and they demand a lot of themselves, however our coaches and administration does not believe in belittling, degrading, or breaking down players for any reason. Our positive club atmosphere has been created by our administration and coaching staff, and is supported by players and families throughout each season… encouraging all players and teams to reach their full potential. We will not tolerate any behavior by coaches, administration, players, or parents that deter from the positive club atmosphere.
Assisting Student-Athletes in Playing Volleyball at the Collegiate Level… With our College Recruiting Coordinator on staff, the recruiting needs of all of our players are well taken care of. Regardless of age or team, the Indy Juniors staff focuses on assisting players who desire to pursue their goals of playing volleyball at the collegiate level. Players and families meet with our College Recruiting Coordinator to create an individual plan that meets the needs and wants of the prospective college athlete. We assist in creating skill tapes to send to college coaches, as well as proactively marketing all of our players, to help them gain the exposure they need to play at the next level.
