National TWO LEVELS U14-U18
Our national team programs are designed for players aiming to compete in college or develop into top-tier athletes. With a focus on maximum commitment and high-level training, we offer two levels of national team competition for the 2024-2025 season.
The MGA promise of a higher level of training depends, in part, on players to be 100% committed to their team and to plan ahead so as to not miss any dates/events. National teams are highly competitive with an expectation of strict adherence to attendance policies , the ability of players to manage their academic and athletic schedules. Our expected priorities for this group are: family , education and MGA volleyball commitment.
