Become a Referee

Start your officiating pathway with the Manitoba Volleyball Officials Association.

Volleyball referees in Canada are governed by policies set forth by Volleyball Canada (VC) through the National Referee Committee which in turn works in close co-operation with Regional Officials’ Chairpersons (ROCs) in each Region of the Association.

Interested in becoming a Referee? The Manitoba Volleyball Officials Association (MVOA) is always looking for new referees to officiate throughout the school, club and senior league seasons. Refereeing is a great way to stay involved in the game and earn extra income at the same time!

Contact Stino Siragusa [email protected], MVOA Clinician & Promotions Chair, for information on upcoming clinics, registration, and getting started as an official.
