Alpha Performance Volleyball Club is proud to announce Eleanor Beavin as its new Program Manager and Recruiting Coordinator. A Kentucky native and decorated collegiate athlete, Beavin joins Alpha’s leadership team with a clear mission: to grow the sport, serve the community, and create champions.
Beavin’s role will center on expanding Alpha’s programming, including seasonal camps and leagues, specialized clinics, and small group training, while leading the club’s recruiting efforts for athletes pursuing collegiate volleyball. Her work will directly support Alpha’s commitment to building inclusive, high-energy opportunities for athletes ages 8–18.
A standout libero at the University of Kentucky, Beavin was a four-year starter and 4x SEC Champion, earning SEC Libero of the Year honors as a freshman and setting the UK program record for career service aces.
