Where can your volleyball athlete actually play?
A named, specific list of college volleyball programs that fit — scored against your kills per set and what it really took to make each roster. Every division, D1 through D3. Not a brochure. A map.
Volleyball programs we've mapped
Each one scored against the athletes it actually recruits.
Scored against real rosters
Not a brochure. We place you against what it actually took to make each program's roster, division by division.
Reach, match, and safety by fit
Ranked by where you can realistically play and contribute — playing time and roster need, not prestige.
Real net cost by family income
What each school costs after aid at your income band, so the list is a plan you can afford, not a wish.
Coach outreach that's ready to send
A personalized first email to each program's coach, built from your own numbers.
Built for volleyball, position by position
We map every position, and score the ones that have a recruited-caliber stat on their own number:

The volleyball numbers that get you recruited
Where recruited volleyball players land on kills per set, by level, from current college rosters. A directional bar to place yourself against, not a cutoff. Your real fit depends on position, competition, and more.

Where volleyball athletes at each level land
Not a projection — the real outcomes of comparable recruits. At each level of kills per set, here's the division mix athletes with those numbers actually reached, and a few of the programs that took them.
e.g. Grand Valley State University, Roberts Wesleyan University, University of North Carolina at Pembroke
e.g. Florida Southern College, Northwest Missouri State University, Southwest Baptist University
e.g. Chapman University, University of Redlands, Agnes Scott College
e.g. Martin Luther College, Utica University, Nazareth University
Based on the recruited athletes we have verified high-school stats for. Coverage is deeper at higher divisions, so the mix leans toward them — read it as the shape of the funnel, not exact odds.

Volleyball recruiting, answered
What does it take to get recruited for volleyball in college?
It varies by division. FiftyStar scores you against your kills per set of the athletes each program actually recruits, across 656 volleyball programs from D1 through D3, so you see where your numbers really fit instead of guessing. Building the map is free.
How do I reach out to college volleyball coaches?
A short, specific email with your numbers and your film gets a reply where a mass blast gets ignored. FiftyStar drafts a personalized first email to each program's coach, built from your own volleyball numbers, ready to send.
What is the difference between D1, D2, and D3 volleyball recruiting?
They are different levels of play and roster need, and the right fit is about playing time, not prestige. We map all of them (117 D1, 190 D2, 283 D3) and rank where you can realistically play and contribute.
Is FiftyStar free for volleyball recruits?
Yes. Building your Target Map, the named and scored list of volleyball programs that fit, is free. Season Pass adds the maintained training plan, tracking, and the full recruiting calendar.
