Valley Christian has officially added sand volleyball as the newest varsity sport at the school. The Trojans will begin competition this spring under the direction of sand volleyball head coach Kelly Clausen.
“We’re excited to be able to add this sport to our athletic program,” Athletic Director Greg Haagsma said. “The enthusiasm for the sport is growing across the country at all levels, and especially among high schools in Arizona, and we’re eager to create this opportunity for our girls to compete for Valley Christian.”
We are currently exploring constructing sand volleyball courts on campus for the team to practice and compete at Valley Christian.
The Trojans will compete in Division II in the AIA. Arizona was the first state to add sand volleyball as a varsity sport at the high school level and has several universities with programs now.
