About us
We’re a team of coaches, athletes, and everyday fans who believe footvolley should be simple, welcoming, and fun for everyone. We are committed to making this a unique experience that promotes growth, health, and community building.
Around the world, footvolley has grown from local beach games into structured training communities and international competition. Seattle already has a strong soccer culture, beach courts, and a community that enjoys training outdoors.
Footvolley connects those elements in a new way.
