Rochester Youth Volleyball League

Rochester, NY — The Rochester Youth Volleyball League began in September 2012 with the goal of introducing volleyball to girls in grades 3–6 throughout the Rochester area. In its first season, the league included three area schools and 70 participants. It has since grown to serve over 500 athletes across 15 districts.

The league operates as a "pre-modified" program, with teams organized by school district to provide a local, community-based structure. Participants register through their district's program and practice at a location within that district. The league runs for 8 weeks and includes team practices, home and away games, and a year-end tournament. Each participating district aims to field at least one team for grades 3–4 and one for grades 5–6. Many programs are able to support multiple teams per age group, depending on gym space and registration numbers.

Although teams are separated by school district, this is not a school-sponsored program. The Rochester Youth Volleyball League is operated by VolleyFX Volleyball Club (VFX), the largest girls’ volleyball organization in the Rochester area. VFX is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization and a member of USA Volleyball.
