Discover the Uniqueness of Smashball

In 2021, NYC VBA introduced NYC to smashball and is the only program offering this innovative instruction method. we utilize the techniques  in our VBA Development Program tailored for young athletes in grades 3 – 6.

VBA SMASHBALL introduces a progressive approach to traditional volleyball instruction, catering specifically to young athletes. VBA lowers the net height to allow athletes to concentrate on perfecting form and attaching techniques – an experience often beyond the reach of most young volleyball enthusiasts.

VBA SMASHBALL features a smaller court size and fewer players, allows a more dynamic game using a single bounce off the floor, enabling players to engage in prolonged rallies, thereby honing their concentration skills. By placing athletes consistently at the heart of the action, the game facilitates quicker decision-making and increases the frequency of ball interactions. This accelerated learning process significantly enhances their mastery of the game.
