document. Any new programs added over the next few months also will appear in this space.
We remain proactive in providing safe and quality experiences for our community.

Youth Beach Volleyball Clinics
Boyd Lee Park
Ages: 8–12 (as of June 30, 2021)
These clinics are intended for the beginner volleyball
player who wants to learn the beach game. The beach
game is a great way to learn volleyball skills – low
impact on the body in the sand versus hard court,
many more reps being that there are only two people
on the court, and many more reps in other aspects
of the game. The program will be designed to help
youth players learn and play beach volleyball with
an emphasis on skill development. The purpose of
the clinics is to provide children the opportunity to
build beach volleyball skills in a fun and supervised
environment.
