A division for new and developing players looking to have fun while building confidence in bumping, setting, hitting, and serving. Slower-paced matches with a focus on improving fundamentals, teamwork, and enjoying the game in a relaxed environment.
Restriction: No Oolong “BB” Players and above.
FTLO Skill Level: B
Adults who are new or relatively new to volleyball. B level introduces the foundational techniques and movement patterns that support long-term skill development. This level provides a fun, supportive environment for players to build comfort with the ball, court awareness, and consistency across all basic skills. It serves as a bridge for athletes preparing to enter more rally-focused play.
At this Level: Rallies are developing but not consistent. Focus is on basic ball control, movement timing, and purposeful contact.
Development: Introduction and repetition of all foundational skills: passing, setting, serving, and spiking mechanics. Emphasis on body positioning, court movement, and ball-tracking. Cooperative drills and modified gameplay help reinforce skill application in a team setting.
Note: Players may train at this level for multiple seasons as they develop confidence and readiness for more structured gameplay environments.
