PVL Junior Teams Season Info - 2022
Training
- Premier Junior: Starts mid March INCLUDING term breaks.
- U19, U17 and U15: Starts late March, EXCLUDING term breaks.
1.5 hours in the evening once per week, between Monday and Thursday, at either 6pm - 7.30pm or 7.30pm - 9pm. Training schedule will be provided to players who are selected in the squad/teams and players selected as Shadow Players.
Shadow Players
Shadow Players are selected to train with the squad, and to fill positions in the event that a selected player chooses not to accept their place in the team. Once Shadow Players register and pay the Shadow Player fee ($75), they will continue to train with the squad for the 5 training sessions between trials and Round 1. If ultimately invited to join the team for the season, Shadow Player will pay the difference between the Shadow Player fees and full season fees.

Club Expectations of our Members
Please see Conditions of Membership for our formal conditions of membership that every member must agree to before becoming a member of the club. In essence this boils down to:
- Play nicely with everyone, but especially our younger members.
- Meet your commitments (registrations, payments, showing up for games) when possible, and seek help/let us know when you can’t.
Some additional points specific to junior teams:
- Be punctual: That means arriving at least 15 minutes before training start time, to allow time for putting on shoes/gear, filling up water bottle, etc.
-
Leaving the training venue before/during training session: We are unable to take any responsibility for any issues that may occur outside of the training venue before/during training session times (eg, if a member decides to leave training early or during training session).
-
Leaving the training venue at the end of training: For safety reasons, we recommend juniors wait inside the sports hall for parents to pick them up from there. Our duty of care towards (the child) is during training session times and inside the training venue.
-
Language: There is zero tolerance with vulgarity in any of our junior programs. Please be mindful with your choice of words.
-
Dress code: Wear appropriate sports attire. Sports singlets are acceptable. Denum and/or spaghetti strap singlets are considered inappropriate for indoor volleyball, especially for safety reasons.
Volleyball Queensland (VQ) Membership
