Jr Ranger fall league

Jr. Ranger Volleyball is a Fall travel program offered by Lakes Volleyball for incoming 7th and 8th grade boys and girls in the Forest Lake, MN community. This program is designed for athletes who are ready to take their game to the next level through competitive team play, skill development, and quality coaching.

We expect to form a total of 5 teams - 1 boys team and 4 girls teams made up of 7th and 8th graders. Full Season fees are $250

The Jr. Ranger program runs independently of the school district but maintains a strong connection with the local community and uses school facilities for practices.

who can participate

All incoming 7th and 8th grade students in the Forest Lake area who register in full and pay a non-refundable $25 fee are eligible to try out for Jr. Ranger Volleyball. Both boys and girls are encouraged to participate.

If your player does not make a Jr Rangers Fall Travel League team, they can still register and participate in the Community Ed program as they do not have tryouts or limited space.
