Philosophy: The Crossfire is a faith-based club. They compare their organization to a private, Christian school. A strong emphasis is put on building well-rounded athletes with self-confidence, integrity, and sportsmanship. They include team meetings focused on the Fellowship of Christian Athlete’s Bible (FCA.) Across every page of their website is the verse:
“Run with perseverance the race that is set before us.” Hebrews 12:1
Top Teams: They are building a dynasty that rivals the top clubs in the state and country. They have consistently had teams place in the top three at AAU National Championships.

Features: This club provides players with specialized strength training and conditioning. They use Viverant N1 Sports Perfomance’s professionals to create an intense, volleyball-centered program. This has become a big part of their success; they are developing strong, powerful athletes. While some players seek training outside of their club, it is nice to see this feature added to programs.
They also have a great number of summer camps/training for those who are looking to perfect their skills: For more information on summer programs click below:
