EmpowHER Sand - Fall Club vs. Club
Club vs Club gives beach players more of a unified environment where they compete as a whole against other clubs. EmpowHER Sand will group girls into teams comprised of three (3) lines (each line is a pair or two player team). These events lead to a team unity and atmosphere where players are cheering each other on.

Why Sand (beach volleyball) Training?
Do you know beach volleyball is now a collegiate and high school sport?! And growing very rapidly?! There are so many benefits of playing beach even at a young age.
1. Lots of contacts means lots of practice - with just two players on the court each player will need to be ready to move to the ball to keep the game going.
2. Enhanced Endurance - the resistance that sand provides forces you to work harder.
3. Communication - you want to communicate early and often to be sure both parties know who is getting what to conserve energy.
4. Accountability + Trust - each player has a lot to cover and will need to hold themselves accountable to be successful. They also need to learn to trust their partner in what area of the court they will cover.
