What is the cost of the indoor club season?

WAVE’s cost is consistent and competitive with high-caliber elite volleyball clubs in the Southern California region. Cost varies by age group and team, with our younger teams costing less than our older teams. All cost information is readily available at tryouts.

Families are separately responsible for any travel expenses and room and board.
