From fifth grade all the way to twelfth grade, from beginners to experienced players, we have a place for everyone!
Since 2021 - Omaha Lightning boys' varsity and JV teams for grades 8-12. All skill levels.
Lightning volleyball has encouraged me to not only push myself to be a great volleyball player, but also to be a great teammate on and off the court. Nothing is more important than friendship, and Lightning has helped me make friendships I’ll have for a long time.
Lightning has helped my volleyball skills progress so much in the short time I’ve been there! The coaches are amazing as well as the players! It’s such an encouraging environment to be in and I love how God’s love is always being shown through those in this program!
