Welcome to the Indiana Boys Volleyball Coaches Association

The Indiana Boys Volleyball Coaches Association was established in 1994 to allow the opportunity for boys in Indiana to play the fabulous sport of volleyball. Mel Young of Richmond High School in Richmond, Indiana wanted to start “something special for the boys.” The people who knew and loved Mel realized that once a goal took hold of his head and heart, the dream of boys volleyball was going to come true.
