Step Up For Students
Champions Volleyball is an approved Step Up For Students provider. Eligible families can put scholarship funds toward qualifying sports participation and team fees.
We're a Step Up For Students Provider
Step Up For Students is a Florida nonprofit that administers the state's K–12 scholarship programs. Depending on the scholarship, families can use their funds for far more than tuition — including qualifying sports participation and extracurricular activities.
Because Champions Volleyball is an approved provider, eligible families can direct those funds toward our club team, academy, camp, and clinic fees. For a lot of families, that's the difference between watching from the stands and stepping on the court.
