List of NCAA women's beach volleyball programs

Add article description

These collegiate women's beach volleyball teams compete as members of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). Currently, 97 college athletic programs sponsor the sport, with five more to do so in future seasons.[1] The majority of the participating programs are members of Division I, though some members of divisions II and III also compete. Unlike in most sports for which the NCAA holds championships, one beach volleyball championship is held, made open to members of all three divisions.[2]

Current teams

As of the 2024 season, these schools sponsor a beach volleyball team that is recognized by the NCAA. All institutions on this list are located within the United States. Conference affiliations reflect those for beach volleyball, and do not necessarily match the schools' primary conferences.
