Warren SixPak Club Information

Local Tournaments

We enter our teams in junior or men’s division tournaments in New Jersey (Powerzone and the Warren Middle School are two of the major sites) leading up to high school season. We try to keep the tournaments from interfering with practice.

Playing time

We try to keep teams at 9 or 10 players per team, and try to make sure everyone gets some playing time, especially at local tournaments. At travel tournaments, we have to consider winning somewhat more important, so this isn’t always the case there. But we try not to bring players to travel tournaments that wouldn’t play. This also takes specialization into account – not all players would get back row (for hitting specialists) or front row (for defensive specialists) playing time. We’ll try to make sure we have teams for everyone who wants to play.

What Your Son Gets as Part of Warren Sixpak

Nearly all Warren players go on to play in college – many at the NCAA division I, II or III level, others at NAIA schools that aren’t part of the NCAA system, and others at the club level at colleges without official teams. Players who play for Warren become the best players in the state. The All-State teams from the last 20 years have been dominated by Warren players. That’s partly because they get the additional coaching. It’s partly because they get to play competition against the best players in the east coast region and even nation (at nationals), It’s partly because Warren players just play more than other players, and that’s because they like to play. Warren players get an experience that will help them later in life, and a group of friends that will probably be a part of their lives well past their years with the teams.
