QUAD Session Structure
Training, Then the Cauldron
Every QUAD session runs in two phases. The first 90 minutes builds skill through position-specific, high-rep training. Then athletes step into the Cauldron — 60 minutes of 4v4 competition under game-like pressure, tracked on a leaderboard every week.
Phase 1 · Training
90 min
Position-Specific Training
High-rep, focused reps by position — the touches that build the skill the Cauldron will test.
Phase 2 · The Cauldron
60 min
Cauldron 4v4 Competition
Two parts — individual rounds, then team work-up-court play. Detailed below.
The Cauldron
What Happens in the 60 Minutes
~2x
The ball contacts of standard 6v6 play. Small-sided formats like 4v4 put more reps on every athlete, every round — that's why the Cauldron is built around it.

6–8 athletes · similar level
Grouped by level to raise positional intensity and speed up development — same coaching approach as QUAD, more focused reps.
Physical Training
4–5 athletes per group

Why QUAD
Coaching through feedback and personal accountability
QUAD isn't about who's the most talented athlete in the room — it's about who shows up ready to work. Coaches give direct, specific feedback every session, and every athlete is held to the same standard: you get out what you put in.
Three-Cue Coaching
Every correction distilled to what actually moves the needle — no overcoaching, no noise.
Question-Led Instruction
Athletes learn to read the game, not just execute reps — coaches ask before they tell.
Whole Athlete, Whole Person
Development on the court is treated as inseparable from character off it.
"We Before Me" Culture
Competitive individually in the Cauldron, but built on a team-first foundation.
Ground-up curriculumIn Development
We're building a training progression designed to keep every athlete surrounded by others at or near their level, so the competition in the room always pushes them forward.

Open to any athlete, regardless of club status — QUAD isn't a tryout for a team, it's a program to grow in.
FAQ
Good to Know
Why QUAD?
We wanted to find a better way to support boys high school volleyball in the Valley — real training and real competition, without club being the only option, and without the commitment and expense that comes with it.
Is this just for boys?
QUAD is currently a boys program. We're exploring adding a girls QUAD for both High School and Middle School athletes — inquire to add yourself to the interest list.
Is BRUSA starting a boys club program?
No — we have no intention of starting a boys club. We'll continue to grow and build volleyball training in the Valley in a way that helps existing and incoming HS athletes, and adds to those already playing club elsewhere.
Do you have to be on a club team to play QUAD?
No. QUAD is open to any athlete regardless of club status. It's not a tryout and it's not tied to any club roster — it's a standalone training and competition program.
Is this a year-long commitment?
No. QUAD runs year-round in flexible blocks — Summer, Fall, and Winter — and you join one session at a time, not a season-long club commitment. There's no tournament travel involved — it's training and Cauldron competition at our Temecula facility.
Where is QUAD held, and how big are the groups?
26201 Ynez Rd #102, Temecula, CA 92591 — the BRUSA main facility, on our 4-court gym. Each session runs with a minimum of 16 and a maximum of 36 athletes.
