Volleyball @ Hills

Volleyball @ Hills is a growing program with a clear vision: to develop skilled, confident, and resilient student athletes both on and off the court. Whether students are new to the sport or striving for high-level competition, our program provides a supportive and challenging environment where they can thrive.

Open to students across a range of year levels, Volleyball @ Hills focuses on building strong foundations in technique, teamwork, and personal growth. Through consistent training, access to high-quality facilities, and a culture of excellence, our athletes are guided to reach their potential—step by step, game by game.


A Program Built for Growth

Volleyball @ Hills is more than just training and match play. It’s a space where students learn to lead, collaborate, and commit to long-term goals. 

We emphasise:
Skill Development: A strong focus on the core elements of the game - serving, setting, spiking, and strategy - tailored to the student’s level.
Teamwork and Leadership:
Every player learns the value of communication, collaboration, and self-discipline, developing not just as athletes, but as people.
Pathway Progression:
We’re focused on the future. Our students are supported to explore opportunities in inter-school competitions, representative squads, and higher-level play.

As the program expands, we are actively working to increase our competitive participation, introduce strength and conditioning components, and build leadership roles within the team.

Expert Leadership: Angela Gaviglio
