12U BVCA Team

AJV Sand trains year-round!  The 2024- 2025 season is divided into 3 seasons: Fall (Sept, Oct, Nov, & Dec), Spring (Jan, Feb, March, & April), and Summer (May, June, July, & Aug).  Athletes have the option to train once, twice, or three times a week (up to 6 times a week during the summer), we offer a flexible training schedule for the busy athlete.  Players can join at any time during a season, but purchased sessions are only good for that season. We suggest starting with a smaller package and increasing sessions as needed.  For unlimited year-round training, if you purchase the Fall and Spring unlimited packages you get Summer 2025 unlimited for free.  A tryout/evaluation is not required for the club training program; players are evaluated and divided before each practice session. You do not need a partner but can sign-up with one.  Tournament competition is separate from the club training program; registration and partnerships are at the discretion of the athletes.

Training is offered in Cedar Park (ASC Sand Complex) and in West Austin (WAYA sand courts) during the summer, fall, and spring seasons to accommodate every athlete. We welcome all male and female athletes, as well as all AJV indoor and non AJV athletes to compete with AJV Sand. Emphasis on individual and team ball control, as well as strength and conditioning are included.

Training will be led by AVP and FIVB beach professional Ashley Ivy. Ashley began her career at Stanford University where she won a NCAA national championship. After much success at the indoor level, she transitioned to the beach to find herself competing on the USA Beach National Team. We are excited for her to be running the sand program, at Austin Juniors, as sand continues to grow as a NCAA scholarship sport.  Whether you are looking to compete in college or make your school team, AJV Sand has the resources to allow you to achieve your goals.
