CYDI Mission


Mission - Our mission is to provide Girls with access to elite volleyball training that cultivates top-tier talent, while also emphasizing academic achievement and leadership.

Core Values

Coachability – We provide continuous performance feedback, strategies, and guidance, and expect our athletes to approach this instruction with an open and receptive mindset. While we equip athletes with exceptional skills, it is their coachable spirit that unlocks their full potential and fosters a championship mentality. Having a winning attitude and the willingness to learn are fundamental qualities that drive true excellence on and off the court.

Relentless Work Ethic - We expect unwavering effort and intensity in every practice. Our athletes are committed to giving 110%, chasing every ball, maximizing every drill, and understanding that championship performance in games begins with habits that are developed in practice.

Academic Excellence - We firmly believe in the student-athlete model, with a fundamental emphasis on the “student” component. Our program is meticulously designed to harness the discipline and commitment learned in volleyball as a catalyst for academic achievement, significantly enhancing our athletes’ opportunities for admission to top-tier institutions.

Teamwork - Volleyball is fundamentally a team sport, where individual brilliance is amplified by collective synergy. We champion exceptional communication, while building mutual trust, and seamless cooperation among our athletes. Understanding that success on the court is a shared endeavor, our players commit to working cohesively, leveraging diverse strengths, and elevating each other to achieve common goals that are impossible to reach alone..
