Club Cactus immediately stepped in to support Starlings Tucson when the new club launched in January of this year. Despite the setbacks caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Club Cactus provided gym space, a financial donation, and even offered a free entry to a Club Cactus-hosted tournament. These contributions will continue, and there are plans to further expand the interaction between the two clubs. Club Cactus coaches and administrators are always available to offer guidance and instruction to the Starlings club, and Lang hopes to eventually integrate the Starlings players into Club Cactus practices and scrimmages.

Club Cactus has a history of promoting inclusivity and accessibility in volleyball. They provide their own members with opportunities to offset club fees by working at the club’s annual tournament. Last year, almost one-third of the club’s 175 families took advantage of this offer. Additionally, Club Cactus assists members in finding alternative funding through methods like selling ads and securing sponsorships.
