USA Volleyball has officially announced Dallas, Texas as the host to the 2019 USAV Girls’ 18s Junior Nationals. This will be the second time in three years that the competition will reach Dallas at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center from April 26-28, 2019.
The event will draw in nearly 260 teams which would equate to 3,000 players and over 5,000 family and friends in attendance. All five divisions of club volleyball – Open, National, USA, American and Patriot – will be represented at the tournament and crown a champion.
“With the great success of the 2017 USA Volleyball Girls’ 18s Junior National Championships, it was hard to ignore an opportunity to bring the event back to Dallas,” said USAV Senior Director Tom Pingel.
