Niva Minis

What is NIVA MINIS?

NIVA Minis is the next step in our player development pathway and serves as Phase 3 of the NIVA system.

Unlike Sprouts (Phase 2)—which focuses primarily on motor learning skills with light volleyball instruction and no gameplay—NIVA Minis is a more instructional, volleyball-focused program.

In NIVA Minis:

  • Sessions are 1 hour and 15 minutes long

  • Athletes are taught every fundamental skill of volleyball

    • Passing

    • Setting

    • Serving

    • Attacking

    • Defense

  • Players also begin learning the rules of the game

  • Instruction is more structured and intentional, preparing athletes for future gameplay-based programs

Overall, NIVA Minis bridges the gap between basic motor development and full volleyball play, giving athletes a strong technical and foundational understanding of the sport.
