The Northland Royals will have 12U, 14U, JV & Varsity teams in 2025.
Spring Training: April – May
We will be practicing on Tuesdays (3:30-5:30) and Thursdays (3:30-5) from April 1 – May 8, 2025 at Canlan Barrington. On Thursday April 17 and Thursday, May 8, practices will be 3:30-5:30.
Evaluation for skill assessment and placement on a Northland Royals team and a Parent Meeting will occur during the first week of April.
Spring Training is mandatory for those who wish to play competitively during the fall game season. Exceptions are made for players who play club volleyball in the spring. Spring is the time when teams are formed, players learn their positions and learn to play as a team.
Summer Break: June – July
The Royals take a break during the summer. Although not required, it is highly encouraged for the players to keep up their skills with a summer camp hosted by several clubs in the area. Options will be sent out to families once camp information is released. We also plan to have some fun team building activities during the summer.
Game Season: Mid-August – October
Practices resume the week of August 11. Practices are held twice per week (days and times TBD) at Canlan Barrington. Games will begin the third week of August and the game season will end in mid-October. Many of our games are grouped together in a single day (Friday or Saturday) format with several teams gathering to play each other at a sports complex. They are typically within an hour radius of Barrington, with the exception of a possible out of town tournament for the JV/Varsity teams.
