SMBC Shack Volleyball Club is based in West Los Angeles, CA.
SMBC Shack offers excellent training and competitive teams for boys club volleyball to the athletes and families of West Los Angeles and its adjacent communities. Our primary practice facility is Marymount School, located at 10643 Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles, out of which we run our travel teams, as well as our youth programs.
We strive to train our athletes to become the best volleyball players they can be -- dedicated, hard-working, passionate, disciplined -- as well as excellent teammates and respectful young men.
SMBC Shack fields three to five boys club volleyball teams each season. There are five primary age divisions at SMBC Shack: 18's (seniors), 17's (juniors), 16's (sophomores), 15's (freshmen), and 14's (8th graders). The grades listed are most common for that age division. Most often, seventh graders also play in the 14's division. Periodically, if there are enough athletes, we will put together a 13's team (seventh graders only) or a 12's team (5th/6th graders).
The Director for SMBC Shack is Ryan Van Loo, who has infused the club with his passion and energy and is an excellent advocate for boys club volleyball. Ryan is bolstered by an excellent coaching staff with strong ties to the volleyball community.
