About

To foster the growth of young athletes in the sport of volleyball and life by providing quality coaching, training and competition at a reasonable time and financial commitment.

We are a family-owned and oriented volleyball club with the goal to provide the finest possible volleyball experience to every athlete that is involved in our program – as a player, person, and student/athlete. To achieve that goal, we strive to maximize the individual skill level of every player and then combine those players into the best possible team they can be. We stress the development of fundamental technical skills, learning to work together as a team, and personal habits that lead to success in any walk of life.

Eclipse pioneered the concept of a "Hybrid Area League Program”.   For over 20 years, we have been providing players the opportunity to experience an elite level of coaching with low cost and time commitment as we promote local competition with minimal travel.

Key pillars to the program:

• Flexibility with schedule and commitment level

• Hands-on coaching approach in small cohorts divided by skill level (small player to coach ratio) 

• Low cost (Eclipse is nonprofit 501C).

• Community based.  Family atmosphere as Eclipse is family-run, founded by world-level coaches Tian, Peilan and now managed by their son Dan.  We have many ex-Eclipse siblings, friends, neighbors playing or coaching in our club.

Eclipse believes that we can balance low time and cost commitment and competitiveness into a hybrid area program.  We pioneered the "Hybird Area" program concept and had tremendous success in the NCVA girls vball league for 20 years, winning Premier (Area) League titles most of the seasons as well as placing highly in large Qualifier events.  

We decided to relaunch the club operations after a pause during the pandemic and serve both the growing local boys as well as the already popular girls communities.

We had a successful inaugural boys 2022-23 club season, surpassing our goals and training a great group of players.  

A few highlights:

• 2023-24 season is well under way and going well (both 14s and 12s seeded atop gold divisions)

• 2023 season both 14s and 13 Solar moved up divisions, with the 13 Solar team reaching as high as Bronze.  In the final Far Western tournament, we moved up from 28th seed to finish 11th, beating the #5, #3 seeds in the process.
