About the Program
The El Toro Girls Volleyball program is a pillar of the Lake Forest athletic community. Competing in the CIF Southern Section and the Sea View League, we offer a competitive environment across four distinct levels: Varsity, Junior Varsity, Frosh/Soph, and Freshman B. This tiered structure ensures that every athlete—from the elite senior to the developing freshman—receives the coaching and court time necessary to reach their full potential.
Our "Charger Family" Philosophy
At El Toro, we believe that volleyball is a vehicle for character development. Our program is built on the Charger Student Learning Outcomes, focusing on:
Integrity & Respect: We compete with honor, respecting our opponents, officials, and the game itself.
Service Before Self: Our athletes are encouraged to be "Engaged Citizens" who contribute to their community through teamwork and compassion.
Resilience: We train our players to be "Thoughtful Problem Solvers," using the challenges of the sport to build perseverance and adaptability.
