Mission Statement
Gainesville Juniors Volleyball Club is committed to the
improvement of volleyball players and coaches in the
Gainesville area. It is the goal for all GJVC participants
to acquire a love for the sport of volleyball, have fun, to
develop as players who are fundamentally and
technically sound, and to play against the best
competition regionally and nationally. It is also our
mission to help our players develop mutual respect for all
people, to learn the true meaning of commitment, to
foster the ability to put forth maximum effort for the
good of others, and to become productive citizens.
Affiliation
Gainesville Juniors Volleyball Club is a member
of the Florida Region of the United States
Volleyball Association. This organization is the
governing body for our USA Volleyball Olympic
program, as well as sponsoring Adult and Junior
play all over the country. All of our players,
coaches, and official chaperones are required to
be members of this association. Each coach
passes a background check and is cleared by the
Florida Region in order to be on our staff.
Affiliation
Gainesville Juniors Volleyball Club is also a member of
the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU). Players and coaches
on our younger teams will participate in several AAU
events in order to further develop their skills and gain
exposure to the tournament volleyball setting, while
maintaining a manageable and financially reasonable
introduction to club volleyball. All coaches must pass
the AAU background check in order to be on the
Gainesville Juniors coaching staff.

Personal Commitment





Players selected will be expected to have volleyball as their first
extracurricular priority.
Players selected may expect to miss days of school due to
tournament scheduling and Out-of-State travel. The Club will
make every effort to minimize lost days.
The expectation is that limited practices, and no tournaments, will
be missed, and that each player put forward maximum effort at all
times.
The commitments incumbent upon accepting a position on a Team
- personal, scholastic and financial - are significant.
The club goal in each age group (11U-18U) is to secure a bid to
the USAV National Championships (in New Orleans, Louisiana
for 2015).
Coaches
 Each team will have one Head Coach.
 Each team will have at least one Assistant Coach.
 Assistant Coaching assignments will be determined by
the Executive Director.
Best Coaching in Gainesville

The level of coaching excellence offered by
Gainesville Juniors is one of the many qualities
that separates us from the other clubs in
Gainesville and the State of Florida.
