Programs described in its return (2)
  1. $212,578 spent. Club teams - Rainier Volleyball Club (RVC) was established in 2017, beginning with three (3) teams in its first season. During the 2024-2025 season the club team program supported 10 teams and nearly 120 youth athletes, accommodating a variety of skill levels and providing more opportunities for young players to learn and grow through the experiences encountered in competition and team sports. Geographically the program services families from at least 11 school districts in the southern Puget Sound Region. Through fundraising, sponsorships, and donations, RVC is able to offer scholarships and discounts to approximately 20% of participants in the club team programs.
  2. $4,979 spent. Camps and Clinics - Throughout the summer, fall and during the course of the club team season several open gyms and skills clinics were available to prepare athletes for their upcoming school and club seasons. Camps were offered during the summer months for elementary and middle school ages to introduce them to volleyball or improve skills for future seasons. Multiple clinics were also offered in the fall for elementary and middle school ages. Several open gyms, geared toward high school ages, were offered during the fall months to engage with and prepare high school athletes for the upcoming club team season. RVC is able to provide these opportunities within the communities served at low or no cost to attendees, giving more youth exposure to positive role models, healthy extracurricular activities, and the lessons learned through sports and team-building.
