COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (Oct. 19, 2022) – Invitations to the USA Volleyball National Team Development Program’s (NTDP) Winter Training Series are being sent soon to select junior beach and indoor athletes.

These training series programs will give junior athletes the chance to practice with and play against some of the best competition in the United States while receiving guidance from top coaches.

The Beach NTDP will host its Winter Training Series on Dec. 27-29 in Manhattan Beach, Calif. The series will include two training sessions each day.

The Indoor NTDP will hold its Winter Training Series on Dec. 28-30 at the National Team Center in Anaheim, Calif. Again, there will be two training sessions a day.

A select group of athletes will be invited to the Hybrid Winter Training Series Program. These athletes will cross-train at both beach (Dec. 27-28) and indoor (Dec. 29-30) sessions.

Athletes are identified and invited based on recommendations from the NTDP Scouting Network. The NTDP Scouting Network serves as the NTDP talent identification process and includes coaches and experts from across the United States.

All training series are conducted by top NTDP coaches throughout the country and feature a comprehensive focus on the five pillars of the NTDP: Craft, Mind, Body, Heart and Team. Athletes will receive evaluation, feedback, and individual development plans accompanied by online learning experiences to help support them in a healthy and holistic way.

The mission of the  National Team Development Program (NTDP)  is to identify, recruit and accelerate the development of high-potential junior volleyball players for the ultimate purpose of strengthening our national team programs to achieve sustained competitive excellence.
