Welcome to Absolute Volleyball Academy of Texas
Absolute Volleyball Academy (AVA) of Texas is a club volleyball
organization dedicated to teaching and challenging girls from ages 10
to 18. With a focus on improving a player’s volleyball knowledge and
abilities through skills training, a competitive practice atmosphere
and top-level coaches; AVA is a premier club within the Lone Star
Region. Conveniently located southeast of Houston, AVA attracts some of
the best talent from the surrounding communities.
AVA was
co-founded in 2006 by Katy Garza and Jerry Linch. The two had
previously directed their own clubs and realized the potential of
combining their efforts and creating a volleyball powerhouse. The
merging of the two clubs has been a success with multiple teams
qualifying for the Junior Olympics and having many high school seniors
sign college scholarships.
