Welcome to Stealth Beach
We are excited to welcome you to our Stealth Beach family. One of the main reasons why this club is so special is the dedication shown by the coaches and the families who make up our club. We take pride in developing our athletes and are committed to making them good humans and athletes.
This guide will help you get to know the world of beach volleyball. It also includes a couple of steps to help you become a part of the Stealth Beach family. You may have already completed some of these steps.
Before you start training, make sure that your player has received an evaluation from one of our coaches. He or she will be in one of the following training groups: Beginners, Basics, Elite-Prep, or Elite. If you are unsure which group your player is in, please contact Coach Brett before purchasing a membership or passes.
First Steps
Upper Hand Account
Create your player account in our Upper Hand database. This is where you will purchase training packages or passes, pay club dues, schedule trainings (practices), buy jerseys, or register for travel tournaments. The parent must create the account in their name, then ADD the player(s). Once you add your player(s), you will make purchases under the player’s name.

Volleyball Life Profile
Create a stealth.volleyballlife.com account. This site is where most of the Stealth volleyball tournaments are located. Please fill out the player profile as much as possible. In the “Club” section, please put Stealth Beach.
Social Media
Follow our Instagram @stealthbeachvball and Facebook @stealth beach volleyball to stay current on all the things we do. All players and parents should be following us on social media. We ask that you stay engaged and comment, like and share our important posts.
Create a volleyball Instagram account. This is not a personal IG account, but is used strictly for volleyball and club activities to post videos, tournament results, etc. Parents - we strongly encourage you to also manage this account with your player. This is an important college recruiting tool.
Stealth Gear
Order your Stealth tournament jersey (found under “Passes” in the Upper Hand database). Jerseys can be picked up at the next practice. We require ALL our players to be wearing either a Stealth jersey or T-shirt in any competitive tournament they play. Additional Stealth gear can be ordered at our online Stealth Beach store for both players and parents.
Players to Watch Page
Review our Players to Watch page then submit your Player Profile Submission Form. This is an important step for recruiting purposes, to be selected for the Stealth “Players to Watch” list that is sent out to over 150 collegiate coaches.

Our staff will try to contact you by either phone or email to let you know your child was not registered. We will also give you the opportunity to register them immediately. If the player is not immediately registered that day, the $50 fee will occur.
