2019 Summer!
While our 17-Jim (ranked 13th in the nation by PrepVolleyball.com) prepares to represent us at Girls Junior National Championships, we are busy filling up our summer schedule. As always, you can keep up with us by checking the calendar. And you can Like Us on Facebook as well!
Temporary Practice Locations!
Still the same club, the same name, the same great core group of coaches. Just going to have a new address! This summer/fall/winter, The EDGE is going to build a Brand new, four-court, practice facility in Littleton – where we started it all in 2010/2011. We have closed the doors on our Federal Blvd location forever. We are proud to say we outgrew the building because of our clubs growing success, popularity, and loyal players and families. We thank all of our club family for our success.
We will practice this season at Denver Christian School (address at the top of the page), and the Southwest Family YMCA (on Kenyon in Sheridan).
