'26 Junior's Beach Training - Summer 2026

Bumpy Pickle Beach is offering a (10) week, full summer beach volleyball training and conditioning program for junior girls & boys ages 10 & up. All practices are held weekly, at our facility June 1st through August 7th, 5:00pm to 7:00pm on Monday evenings & 10:00am to 12:00 noon Friday mornings. *if enrolled after May28th.

(2) tournaments are also included and participation is optional. These will be June 20th and Aug 1st. *additional dates for tournaments will be coordinated to accommodate total number of teams or school tryout dates to the best of our ability. Please bear with us.

Training for 2 vs 2 beach volleyball has many benefits, the most obvious is the increased amount of touches. Players will be reacting to, and playing EVERY OTHER BALL. This helps round out a player's overall skill set versus single position training, develops greater communication between teammates and requires players to execute both defensively and offensively. Doing all of this in the sand means your lower body is getting a workout the entire time. Players returning to indoor after a summer of beach volleyball frequently feel faster and stronger on indoor court surfaces.

Total cost is $500** 

All participants will receive 2 logo'd tank tops that extend below waistline. Players will be responsible for remainder of their preferred clothing. Sunglasses, sunscreen, water bottle (no glass), towel, visor or hats should be considered. The outdoor elements of beach volleyball can often be a huge factor for transitioning players. Be prepared.

*Available days of the week may increase/decrease based on total number of participants.

**Players will be required to bring a suitable beach volleyball to all practices. If you have one already, perfect, bring that! We prefer FIVB Official Beach Elite volleyball by Molten V5B5000, AVP OPTX or NCAA OPTX by Wilson. These are available through our checkout, or you can buy from your favorite retailer later. Old indoor balls are not suitable and are too light. If you aren't sure, please ask before spending money on a "bad" beach volleyball. Beware of the Wilson ARX and Replica Game balls. Both look almost identical to the yellow & black OPTX but the similarities end there. The big price difference is the main clue as these are about $50 cheaper on average.
