General Information about Club Season


HOW MUCH ARE THE CLUB FEES AND WHAT DO THEY INCLUDE? ​
Last year, the club season fee was approximately $1900, but this cost is likely to increase slightly each year due to rising cost of gym rentals, tournament registration fees, and gear kits. 

Fees include:
  • Entry fees for all Volleyball BC tournaments, including Provincials
  • Two practices per week from January until Provincials for 12–13U teams (usually held in April), and until Nationals for 14–18U teams (usually held in May), excluding Spring Break and statutory holidays.
  • Coaching honorarium
  • Practice balls and medical kit
  • Team gear kit (jerseys, sweatshirt, pants, shirts, etc)
  • Coach education and VBC coach membership
  • Club administration costs
Fees do not include:
  • Personal items such as running shoes, shorts, and kneepads
  • Travel-related expenses for out-of-town tournaments (including coach travel and accommodation)
  • Any costs associated with optional “extra” tournaments, such as Nationals, playdays, or U.S. tournaments
When ARE TRYOUTS AND WHEN does club season take place?
 The BC club season runs from January to April/May – with tryouts to form teams taking place in mid November to early December. Registration for tryouts will open in October and tryouts are open to everyone!
Which ages can try out, and which division is right for me?
PCVC offers club teams for players from 12U (Grade 6) through 18U (Grade 12), for both boys and girls. While younger athletes in Grades 4 and 5 are welcome to try out for the 12U team, most players typically make the team starting in Grade 6. The number of teams in each age group may vary each year, depending on coach availability and gym space.​

 Below are the age categories for the 2025 season, as per the Volleyball BC regulations:

18U: Athletes born from September 1, 2006 to Dec 31, 2007
17U: Athletes born from September 1, 2007 to Dec 31, 2008
16U: Athletes born from September 1, 2008 to Dec 31, 2009
15U: Athletes born from September 1, 2009 to Dec 31, 2010
14U: Athletes born from September 1, 2010 to Dec 31, 2011
13U: Athletes born from September 1, 2011 to Dec 31, 2012
12U: 
Athletes born from September 1, 2012 to Dec 31, 2013
​
Please note: If your child was born between September 1 and December 31, they are eligible to try out for two different age divisions. If they are open to being considered for either division, they should register, pay for, and attend both tryouts to be evaluated for both teams.


How can I join a club team?
Club teams are formed through a tryout process identified by Volleyball BC. Tryouts typically run from mid November to early December. Players are evaluated by experienced coaches and many factors are taken into consideration, including present capabilities and future potential along with balancing positional needs. Below are some helpful links to help you understand the team selection process.

When and where do practices and games take place?
Practices:
  • Held twice per week, Monday to Friday after school
  • Located at various Vancouver gyms (past locations include Stratford Hall, Crofton House, York House, and Jules Verne)
  • Season runs from January to May
  • Exact practice days, times, and locations will be confirmed closer to tryouts
Games & Tournaments:
  • Take place on select weekends between January and May
  • Most regular season tournaments are held in the Lower Mainland, Vancouver Island, and the Okanagan
  • Provincial Championships are typically hosted in Abbotsford, Burnaby, or Richmond
  • Our 14U–18U teams usually attend the National Championships each year, which are often held out of province but the location changes each year.
  • Some teams may also choose to participate in an additional tournament in the U.S. or another Canadian province during the season

How many players on each team?
​Volleyball BC sets the maximum number of players per team (usually 12-15 players), but final team numbers may range between 8-15 players depending on player selections at each age group. The number of teams PCVC offers each year per age group depends on player, coach, and gym availability.
