NORTHERN ELITE VOLLEYBALL ACADEMY
Where family and competition come together.
At Northern Elite Volleyball Academy, we believe the court is more than a place to play—it’s a place to belong. Our “ohana” (family) culture builds strong connections, teamwork, and respect, while our training program develops athletes from their first touches to their most competitive moments.
Whether you’re starting your journey or chasing championships, we create an environment where players grow with confidence, push their limits, and celebrate each other’s success.
Here, it’s not just volleyball. It’s ohana.

Mission Statement
Northern Elite Volleyball Academy builds players and people through family, growth, and competition. We develop skills from the ground up while fostering a culture where every athlete belongs and every team plays with purpose.
About Us
At NEVA, we do more than run drills—we create a home for athletes who want to grow, compete, and belong.
Our ohana culture means family first: players, coaches, and parents all support one another on and off the court. We build confidence, character, and connections that last long after the final whistle.
Our training programs are designed for every stage of the journey:
-
Developmental: Teaching fundamentals, building love for the game, and creating a positive foundation.
-
Competitive: Pushing athletes to their peak through advanced training, high-level competition, and a winning mindset.
From the first serve to the final point, we train with heart, play with pride, and celebrate like family.
Because here at NEVA, you don’t just join a club—you join OHANA.

Northern Elite Volleyball Academy
(N.E.V.A.)
was founded in 2019 by Owner and Club Director Kalani Gasper. Originally from Oahu, Hawaii, Kalani spent years coaching in his home state before moving to Utah in 2015. Since then, he has coached both club and high school programs, earning numerous tournament medals, multiple region championships, and a Utah High School State Title in 2021.
With more than 30+ years of coaching experience, Kalani built N.E.V.A. on three core principles: skill development, family values, and life lessons. Our programs welcome athletes at every level—from beginners learning the fundamentals to advanced players competing at the highest levels.
What sets us apart is our culture. We create a dynamic, tightly knit environment where athletes aren’t just teammates—they’re family. This is our ʻOhana.
