- EditorsBest answerThere is no fixed rule. Younger children can start with intro programs at a community centre or school, or with mini volleyball, which uses a lower net and a lighter ball to teach basic skills. Many clubs start competitive teams around the upper elementary or middle school years, usually with tryouts. Whether your child enjoys the sport and sticks with it matters more than how early they start. Check the club's published age groups and requirements.
