Tidal National
Tidal National offers an elite beach volleyball program designed for athletes pursuing top-tier training, national competitions, and support for college recruitment. Our mission is to enhance skills, foster teamwork, and provide competitive experiences for dedicated players.
​
Missed the tryouts? No worries! Although our main tryouts take place each spring, we offer makeup tryouts year-round by request. If you’re interested in joining the National Team, please reach out to Coach Kelly to set up an individual evaluation.
Remarkably, 62% of our 2025-2026 National team athletes began with no rating and have advanced to earn ratings showcasing impressive competitive growth. Six of our National athletes rank in the top 10 for their age groups in the state, 67% are in the top 25, and an exceptional 92% are ranked in the top 50 statewide (USAV/AVP).
