Team Manitoba General Information – Indoor
Volleyball Manitoba is proud of the quality of the athletes produced in the province. Manitoba has a strong history of developing some of Canada’s most successful volleyball players, both indoor and on the beach. Many of our athletes have gone on to have long and rewarding University and College careers with some continuing on to play for Canada’s National Team or professionally overseas. Each year, Volleyball Manitoba offers a Team Manitoba program where athletes ages 15U-18U can learn about the skills required to progress along the performance pathway.
The purpose of the Team Manitoba program is to provide a safe and progressive environment where athletes from across the province can learn, train and compete.
Following the recommendations of Volleyball Canada, the Team Manitoba program will;
- Foster the development and growth of competitive volleyball in Manitoba through the sharing of best practices with players, coaches and parents.
- Pursue excellence at key events such as the Canada Summer Games, Western Canada Summer Games, Manitoba Games, Canada Cup.
- Help develop the athlete’s technical, tactical, physical and psychological skills through progressive methods of training.
- Provide opportunities for athletes and coaches to build their confidence and leadership skills.
- Educate athletes and coaches on the skills and tactics required for participation at the post-secondary as well as Junior, Youth or Senior National Team levels.
- Build camaraderie, and personal skills that will transition to life outside of sport
