DALLAS STARLINGS VOLLEYBALL 

Dallas Starlings VBC is part of a national volleyball program; Starlings Volleyball, USA; www.starlings.org.  We are a 501-c3 non-profit organization.  We have created an affordable opportunity for young ladies to play club volleyball.  We are an junior volleyball program for girls that cannot pay the rising costs of other clubs. We create a positive and healthy environment for young ladies wishing to better themselves in the sport of volleyball. We assist in all aspects of our players lives by promoting strong academics through mentoring programs for college entrance, nutritional awareness, and career guidance. Our club survives through donations and player fundraising. Anyone wishing to donate to the Dallas Starlings VBC, please contact our director, Laurie Bruscato.
