Our program is aimed at the youth athlete who has 'some-to-none' exposure/experience, offering them the opportunity to build essential skills and gain confidence as they prepare for future participation at the club, middle school, or high school level.
Our coaching staff features dedicated Moraga student-athletes and experienced coaches who bring a wealth of knowledge from teaching the game at all levels—from beginner to elite club and high school play.

League Operations

- Program Dates: The Next Level Girls Volleyball program takes place on Sundays at Campolindo High School. Parents only need to set aside up to 1.5 hours for their child’s participation.
- Program Details: This program is focused primarily on instructional skill development, providing athletes with targeted training and structured drills to build a strong foundation in volleyball fundamentals. Players will have ample opportunities to enhance their skills through structured drills, with modified gameplay scenarios introduced gradually as fundamental techniques are established. Unlike other Next Level programs that follow a distinct practice-to-game format, the volleyball program integrates instruction and team play throughout the program. There are no fixed transitions from practice to match play. Instead, players will be guided through various skill-building exercises led by Next Level Volleyball coaches, gradually progressing toward more team-oriented scrimmages in the latter portion of the program.

Site Director: Coach Dave Chen
Dave Chen is a former Campolindo Cougar with a passion for volleyball. Dave’s coaching journey started in Southern California while getting his masters in Physical Therapy at Cal State Northridge. Coach Chen joined both the girls and boys programs at Taft High School as the Head JV/ Varsity Assistant coach from 2004-2008. While at Taft he helped lead the girls program to section championship appearances in 2005, 2006, and a section championship win in 2007. Dave led the boys to consecutive sectional championship appearances from 2005-2007.
Shortly after in 2008, Coach Chen returned home to reunite with his Cougar family as the Boys Varsity co-head coach. He is still leading them to victory today and has an impressive history with NCS championship appearances in 2010 and 2024; NCS championship wins in 2011-2015, 2017, 2019, 2022; and a NorCal Championship win in 2013, 2014 and 2015.
With the Campo program playing such an integral part in Coach Chen’s own personal development, he wanted a chance to continue the tradition and jumped in to help with the girls program as the JV co-head coach from 2009-2011. From there, Dave transitioned to the Varsity co-head coach in 2012, where he proudly remains today. Coach Chen helped lead the girls to victory with NCS appearances in 2013-2015, 2017, 2018, 2022; NCS Championships in 2012 and 2016; as well as CIF NorCal / State Championship appearances in 2012 and 2018.
Dave Chen is grateful to have the opportunity to give back to a sport that has opened so many doors for him and provided countless positive life experiences. Above all, one of the most rewarding parts for him has been reconnecting with past players in their adult lives and having Campo alumni come back to the program to coach and help out. Coach Chen is excited to continue growing the sport of volleyball through Next Level!
