Where Every Player Gets the Chance to Grow, Compete, and Succeed

Not Just a Club—A Launchpad for Young Athletes' Potential
NSSC is Southeast Missouri’s largest and most inclusive youth volleyball program, serving boys and girls ages 8–18. With up to four competitive teams per age level, we believe opportunity shouldn’t be reserved just for “elite” athletes.
Whether your athlete is new to the sport or preparing for collegiate-level play, we’re here to help them:
✔️ Build Confidence On and Off the Court
✔️ Play Stronger Competition than School Ball
As a Nike-sponsored club, NSSC is proud to unlock powerful new tools for every athlete in our program — no matter which team you’re on. Every NSSC player will receive their own Hudl account — turning every match into not just a memory, but a moment to grow, shine, and share.

With 30+ teams with qualified coaches and more than 300 players, NSSC offers expansive opportunities for skill development and competition. Our large club size allows us to provide tailored coaching to more teams, ensuring that every athlete has the chance to play, improve, and excel.
“Other clubs turn kids away. We give them a place to rise.”
Convenience and Cost-Effectiveness
By self-hosting several tournaments locally, you get high-level competition with less travel time and lower costs.
We've found most of our parents with athletes 10U-14U don't want the added expenses of uneccessary travel.
So at NSSC we give you options. The amount of travel varies by team level.
This allows us to focus on providing high-quality experiences and training without the added stress of extensive travel.
“No endless weekends away. More time playing. Less time (and money) traveling.”
Built for All Levels
Whether your child is trying volleyball for the first time or looking to prep for college-level competition, we’ve got a pathway for them.
Becoming a Nike-sponsored organization means more than new gear - but new team layout structure.
NSSC offers four primary team levels: Nike, Black, White, and Gray
