Men's Volleyball Program
Support UC Santa Cruz Men's Volleyball!

Greetings Slug Fans and Supporters!

Please help support the UC Santa Cruz Men's Volleyball program. Since 1981, we've been committed to the growth and success of our student-athletes and the Santa Cruz community. In past years, our team has worked on the homeless garden project, helped improve county parks and trails, and provided opportunities for local youth to learn what it means to aspire to collegiate athletics. Many of our student-athletes go on to be teachers and leaders of young people in Santa Cruz County and beyond. Please join us in our journey to creating young adults with the ability to positively contribute to society. 

To stay competitive, our season requires multiple costly trips to the East Coast and Midwest. On those trips we must supply our student-athletes with sufficient food to compete, beds to sleep on, and the cost of travel. It's on these trips that our student-athletes are pushed to develop a professional work ethic and learn to balance academics, athletics, and social life. They will create relationships and memories from these experiences that they will carry with them for the rest of their lives.

Become a Slug supporter today and help keep our Men's Volleyball program functioning at the highest level possible!


Go Slugs!

Success!
