What to Expect This Season: Balance, Care, and the KODA Way
January 2026
Our culture is about thoughtful care for our athletes, our coaches, our staff, and our families. The why behind what we do and how we do it, what you can expect from us, and what we expect from you as part of this KODA family. Please click HERE for the full message

WHY FAMILIES CHOOSE KODA
Our pricing reflects real, meaningful support: safe training spaces, experienced coaches, consistent development opportunities, and a team environment where players and families feel seen and valued.
Please refer to our Travel Team Season Overview & Cost Sheet HERE
For families who need it, we offer fundraising, flexible payment options, and sponsor-backed assistance—because we believe every athlete deserves the chance to grow.
We provide club-supported fundraising opportunities like our Serve-A-Thon, where 100% of the funds raised go directly toward the athlete’s balance. These efforts can significantly offset costs while keeping the focus on teamwork and community. Find out more about our Club Sponsored Fundraising on our Fundraising Page https://www.kodavolleyballclub.com/fundraising
At KODA, it’s not just about playing volleyball. It’s about belonging, growing, and rising—together.
TRYOUT REGISTRATION IS OPEN for U14 Girls (Westmoreland/Whitesboro/Sauquoit)
GIRLS TEAMS: While most of are girls teams are set for the season we do have two teams forming in the New Hartford area. Please register if you are interested.
Attendance, Participation, and Playing Time Expectations
School-sponsored sports and activities where athletes are depended upon by their school always come first. We fully support athletes honoring their commitments to their school teams, programs, and required school activities. At the same time, consistent attendance at KODA practices and team events is an important part of being a member of a club team. Regular practice participation is essential for team development, timing, and competitive readiness. As outlined in our club expectations, missed practices — regardless of the reason — may impact playing time, positional roles, and on-court opportunities. Playing time is not guaranteed and is influenced by preparation, attendance, effort, and team needs. Athletes who are unable to attend practices consistently due to other commitments remain valued members of the team; however, their role and playing time may need to reflect their level of availability and preparation relative to the group. Our goal is to communicate these expectations clearly, early, and often so families can make informed decisions and there are no surprises during the season. We appreciate your partnership in supporting a fair, positive, and competitive team environment. I need a clear heading/title for this
