Our High School Boys Program provides the complete club experience – veteran staff, professional communication, family-oriented culture – and supplements each of those elements with bonus training programs and a rigorous tournament schedule. Through their training, our athletes master the skills needed to compete for the highest level of success.

Along the way we cover core skills training, dedicated positional work, team scenario drills, film review, strength and conditioning, mental-wellness programming, team-building, local events and power leagues, and national qualifier events.

At MOD we believe in developing complete athletes that are just as prepared to launch into adolescence and adult life as they are their next match!

BOYS ELITE DETAILS

Our Elite Program features the highest level of training available, competing in local, regional, and national tournaments.  Athletes in our National Program are dedicated to the sport of volleyball and have a variety of goals including mastering their skills, making their school team, playing college volleyball, and competing for the highest level of success.

• Season Length: September – February, IHSA Season Break from mid-February – May, then resume in early June through AAU Nationals.
  • There is NO tryout for the Summer Season if you are invited to join the ELITE program. We anticipate and plan for all Elite athletes to return and compete with MOD after the IHSA season. 

• Practice Days: 2-3 practices per week consisting of two main weekday sessions, weekend positional training, and dedicated hi-performance sessions.

• Practice Length: Elite practices are typically 2 hours of training + 1 hour of hi-performance per week (film review, positional work and/or strength/conditioning).

• Practice Projections: In 2025-26, our Elite teams train Mon/Weds from 8-10pm. Additionally, teams will practice 1x per weekend leading up to tournament competition as well as on off-weekends from tourney play.

• Practice Locations: NSSC & Fairview South Elementary

• Season Breaks: Our season breaks take place during these general times of year:
  • Thanksgiving Break: 11/24 – 11/30
  • Winter Break: 2 weeks around Christmas and New Years
  • IHSA Break: February (after President’s Day tournament) – May

• Tournaments:
  • Approximately 20-24 competition dates throughout the season (local and travel).
  • Local events are classified as any tournament our teams are able to commute to by car within <2 hours, so while in some cases your event may be out of state know that it can STILL be considered “local” (e.g. Milwaukee, Rockford, NW Indiana, etc.). All travel events will include a dedicated MOD hotel block along with additional instructions and logistics per location. Some common destinations from past seasons include St. Louis, Indianapolis, Louisville, Anaheim, & Orlando.

• Price: We pride ourselves on being a top-of-the-line experience for our athletes and families. Our season dues cover all costs associated with our scheduled training, tournament registration, coach compensation, and admin operations – the only additional fees that families are required to pay are 1.) our Uniform Package (typically $350-450 annually) and 2.) personal travel and lodging during competition weekends out of the area. 
  • 15-18U Elite Membership Dues: $4,500

BOYS REGIONAL DETAILS

Our Regional Program is every bit as focused on mastering the fundamental skills of volleyball and developing sport-specific strength and game knowledge, but with an adjusted season schedule (no nationals, less overall travel). MOD’s training curriculum operates the same between both our Elite and Regional Program, meaning athletes will receive the same high-quality reps during practice regardless of season length or event schedule.

• Season Length: September – February. After our Regional Program’s season concludes, we will hold tryouts for those interested in continuing with the Summer phase of our program, including the opportunity to compete at AAU Nationals.

• Practice Days: 2-3 practices per week consisting of two main weekday sessions and weekend positional training up to tournament competition.
