If you're serious about development, consistency, and long-term success, Jacksonville Skyline offers an experience no other club in the area can match. Our leadership and coaches have immense experience at the highest level and know what it takes for athletes to reach their full potential- evidenced by how quickly Skyline has grown and the amount of athletes that are now playing in college from the last few graduating classes.

Unmatched Facility & Training Environment
We're the only club in Jacksonville with 100% control over our own 45,000-sq. ft. facility, featuring 8 volleyball courts and a dedicated 4,000 sq ft Performance & Strength area. That means no shared gym space, no conflicting activities, and no canceled practices—just a focused, Skyline-only environment every time your athlete steps in the gym.

Integrated Strength & Conditioning Program
Skyline is the only club in Jax with a full-time, on-staff Performance & Strength coach. Coach Alan Edwards, with 18 years of college volleyball experience, leads a college-style training program that includes regular testing, sport-specific programming, and data-driven performance tracking. It is designed to keep athletes strong, healthy, and constantly improving.

Proven Success on the National Stage
Our training model works: Six Skyline teams qualified for the USA Volleyball Junior National Championships—a record-breaking accomplishment not seen in over 30 years of Jacksonville youth volleyball. This is a direct reflection of our athletes' dedication and the excellence of our coaching staff and culture.

Experienced, College-Level Coaching Staff
Our leadership includes former college coaches Hugh and Steph Hernesman, who bring firsthand recruiting knowledge to help guide families through the process with transparency and insight. Our entire coaching staff brings years of experience at high levels of play and development.

Athlete-Friendly Tryout Process
Unlike other clubs, Skyline does not pressure athletes to sign commitments on the spot at tryouts. We believe this is a major decision, and athletes and families deserve time to make the right one.

If you're ready for elite training, true development, and a clear path to the next level, Jacksonville Skyline is the move. Come see the difference for yourself.

We have programs for athletes of all levels. Beginners normally start with Club Prep, Fall Mini Club, Mini Travel, camps, or clinics. Club Prep, camps and clinics essentially run year-round. Mini Club is a 10-week shortened season during which our teams play in 3 competitions and train fundamental skill a ton. Mini Travel is an extension of Mini Club into the spring, where those teams stay together and play in local tournaments. Explore camps and clinics.

Some athletes that have travel experience will start right up with travel ball and make a team during our tryout period in July. These scenarios are generally occur in younger age groups.

We start as early as age 6 with VolleyTots. Travel teams begin at 10U or 4th grade, with age-appropriate schedules that balance volleyball and other activities.

You don’t need to start as early as early as 10s to be a part of Skyline, but it is helpful in creating great fundamental habits early and does give those players a bit of a head start. Younger travel teams stay relatively close and don’t play as often as the older athletes so that there is room for other sports and activities.

As a vital part of the volleyball community, parents play an essential role in supporting their athletes and the team. Here's what's expected during the season:

1. Participation
Parents may be asked to volunteer in various capacities throughout the season. This could include helping with team events, scorekeeping, setting up or cleaning up at tournaments, organizing snacks, or assisting with fundraisers. Your time and participation help create a positive and efficient environment for everyone involved.

2. Travel Arrangements
Parents are responsible for coordinating transportation and lodging for their athletes for all away games and tournaments unless otherwise arranged by the team. Please plan ahead, ensure athletes arrive on time, and communicate with coaches or team managers if carpooling or alternate arrangements are needed.

3. Conduct at Events
We expect all parents to represent the team and facility with respect and good sportsmanship. Please:

• Be supportive and positive from the sidelines
• Refrain from coaching during games — let the coaches coach.
• Show respect to officials, opposing teams, and facility staff
• Follow all tournament or facility rules and guidelines.

A positive and respectful parent community sets the tone for a successful and enjoyable season for all athletes. Thank you for your partnership and support!
