Our Featured Players of the Month

Matthew Saugstad and Isabella Merkel



Matthew Saugstad, age 5, reigns from Milwaukee.  This is Matthew’s first year in Next Level’s Instructional Program.  Matthew is our youngest male club member and one of four boys participating in the program this year.  He’s making great strides and a lot of new friends.  Matt’s mom Debbie keeps a close eye at the sessions – especially with so many girls around!   Isabella Merkel, age 6, hangs out in Franklin.  This is Isabella’s second year in the Instructional Program, along with her older sister Brianna.   She is our youngest female player.   Isabella steps onto the volleyball court with a lot of confidence for such a young lady.  Matthew and Isabella represent the future of our volleyball program.  We’re very happy to have them involved with the program, along with their families and all of the others participating in the instructional program this year.    Both players are showing off the new Molten “First Touch” volleyball designed for young players ages 5 through 8 years of age.  Players age 9 through 11 use the Molten Volleylite.

TRAINING SESSIONS BEGIN...

By popular demand, training sessions will once again be held this season beginning in February.  The February sessions will be held at the Milwaukee County Sports Complex from 7-8:30 p.m. on Sunday, February 14th and Sunday, February 28th.  These training sessions are run by various coaches within the club.  They are FREE.  Any current members of Next Level VBC (including instructional kids) are eligible to attend.  No advance registration is required; however, we will keep attendance at the sessions.  Our first session on February 14th will focus on setters and hitters.  The February 28th session will focus on serving and serve receive.  Players WILL be broken into skill levels - those needing basic skill training and those who need more advanced skill training.   We hope to see you there!
