NexGen & EXCELerator Program
YOU'RE Never too Young to
"FALL" in love with Beach Volleyball!
At Optimum Beach, we take great joy in introducing the wonderful sport of beach volleyball to our youngest athletes. Seeing their smiles as they learn, play, and make new friends is one of our greatest rewards!
Our littlest players often begin their journey with us, developing a love for the game that grows as they do. Many of them progress to our Futures group, where they continue to hone their skills and prepare for competitive play. But it all begins with those tiny hands and feet, making a big impact on our community and the future of our sport.
NexGen offers 3 divisions.
- Dynamites: Ages 8-10 year old (Tampa location TBA)
- Futures: Ages 10-13 year old
- X-Lerators: Ages 13-15 year olds (For players interested in joining our Beach Club but require additional time to acquire the skills needed to train and compete alongside our club players. This division is only offered in Winter-Spring and Summer sessions.
