WHO’S BEHIND THIS
N
NIKITA SELIVAN
PROGRAM DIRECTOR
Hi, I’m Nikita! 🩵
Volleyball’s been my whole world for 17 years. I played at Wheaton College right here in MA, coached at Wellesley College, and spent the last two years as a club director. But here’s what actually lights me up: I saw firsthand how much starting young shaped me — and especially my little sister, who’s become one of the best players in the region. I can’t stop thinking about how much the game could grow if every kid got that same early start.
I’m also a total health-and-fitness nut — I believe every child deserves a physical outlet and a lifelong love of sport. Whether these kids play volleyball forever or not, I’m just happy to give them that foundation. 🩵

SCOTT GRANDPRÉ
FOUNDER
Scott has spent 20+ years developing youth athletes across greater Boston. His take: almost none of the thousands of kids he’s coached went on to play pro — but every one of them became a professional at something. That’s what sports do at their best. He started Mini Volley to give the littlest players a place to begin — and to grow the game for every kid, in every town.
WHAT IS MINI VOLLEY?
Mini Volley is a beginner-first volleyball program for kids 12 & under across greater Boston. Once a week, kids learn the basics through tiny courts, tons of touches, playful coaching, and real games from day one — no experience needed.
12 & UNDER · BEGINNERS WELCOME
1
A team of their own
Your kid joins a team of kids from their own town and keeps the same teammates all eight weeks. The friendships are half the point.
2
A coach every week
One coach leads their team through the whole season with our week-by-week plan: warm up, learn one new skill, then go straight into playing.
3
Real games from day one
Every session ends in small-sided games, so kids actually play volleyball every single week — not just drills.
4
The Festival finale
Every season wraps with the Festival: a celebration day where every kid plays and every kid gets recognized.
