Volleyball players rarely get a break. The high school season runs through the fall, club season picks up soon after and runs into summer, and in between are long tournament days in convention centers and fieldhouses. Families spend hours in the bleachers, and players collect a lot of statistics along the way. These gift ideas fit high school and club players, from the libero to the middle blocker.
Pick the stats that match their position
A good volleyball gift reflects the job a player actually does. Before ordering anything with numbers on it, think about which stats tell their story:
- Outside and opposite hitters: kills, hitting percentage, aces, digs.
- Middle blockers: blocks, block assists, kills, hitting percentage.
- Setters: assists, assists per set, aces, digs.
- Liberos and defensive specialists: digs, digs per set, serve receive rating, aces.
Coaches and team statisticians usually track these game by game. Club teams often have their own stats app, so ask early if you want numbers from both seasons.
Their season on one print
The Season, Volleyball puts the player's season totals set big (kills, digs, aces, blocks, assists), then every match with the date, opponent, result and their line, plus the team's record and finish. It works for high school, club and college players, and many teams order one for every player at the end of the year. From $45.
Career milestones: 1,000 kills, digs or assists
Volleyball has its own version of the 1,000 point club. Reaching 1,000 career kills, digs or assists is a big moment, and many gyms recognize it during the match. The Club is built for it: the number set huge, the player's name and number, the night it happened with the date and opponent, and every season on the way with the running total. If your player is close, keep a careful running count with the coach and write down the details on the night: the set, the score and who set the ball. From $45.
When a record falls
Most kills in a match, most aces in a season, career digs: if your player sets a new school mark, the Record Breaker Print shows the new mark huge beside the old one struck through, with who held it and since when, the player's name and number, and the moment it happened. From $45.
For seniors
Volleyball senior night usually falls in October, before the postseason starts. The Senior Night Career Record collects four years on one print set like the back of a premium trading card: the number huge, every season's stat line with career totals worked out, honors, where they signed if they are playing in college, and your message. From $45.
Team gifts for a long season
Team Socks print the player's number (or your own club logo) near the top and their name running down the leg. Volleyball players tend to care about socks more than most athletes, and a matching team set makes a good gift from the coach or the parents' group. Teams get 30% off. From $26.
For families at club tournaments, Team Pin Buttons are round badges with the player's number (or your club logo), name, school and sport, in a set. Parents and grandparents wear them on lanyards or jackets so everyone in a crowded venue knows who they are cheering for. Teams ordering for every family get 30% off. From $22.
For the parent in the bleachers
Tournament days are long, and bleachers are hard. The Proud Parent Stadium Seat is a padded, folding seat with a backrest, carrying handles and a pocket, printed with #12's MOM (or Dad, Grandma) and the player's name, sport and school. It is a thoughtful gift from a player to a parent, or from one parent to another. From $64.
Details and proofs
School and club names print only as the words you type, never as logos. Most players are minors, so every name, number and stat comes from the family, and you approve a proof before anything prints.
