Skill Levels

Beginner/Recreational is for players who are new to volleyball and are learning the basic foundations of the sport. Momentum’s Beginner/Recreational leagues are a great introduction into the sport and a great way for players to meet each other, and enjoy the game!

Intermediate is for teams that are consistently playing 3 contacts, setting attackers to spike on third contact and with an understanding of rotations and positions. Early Intermediate teams are on the path to move up to the next level of league with some improvement.

Intermediate Plus is for teams running a 2-setter or 1-setter system, often with specialized positions and with 2-3 consistent attacking options. Teams are capable of attacking from the front or back row, and consistently able to spike on a downwards trajectory.

Advanced is for teams running a 5:1 system with proficiency, with all players having experience playing in Advanced leagues or at a comparable level.

How Do I Check My Weekly League Schedule?

Our Monday to Friday evening league schedules can be found by clicking the "Current League Schedule & Standings" button on the Adult Volleyball Programs page: https://momentumvolleyball.ca/adult-leagues

How Do The League Waitlists Work?

Returning teams/individuals from ongoing leagues have the first opportunity to renew their spot for the next season. We will only open registration for the spots available once our team re-signing period passes in mid-season, and we then offer spaces to our waitlisted teams next. If you are interested in joining one of our leagues, you can sign up on the waitlist, and as soon as a team/individual spot opens up, you'll be given the opportunity to secure your spot within a certain timeframe. If you don't confirm before the provided timeframe expires, the spot is then given to the next person on the waitlist.

If I Sign Up As An Individual For A League, Am I Guaranteed A Full Team?

We try our best to ensure that all our individual teams have 6 players. In cases where someone cannot make their games, it's best to notify us ahead of time via email, and we can assist with finding subs!

Can Friends Or Family Watch The League Games?

We do not allow spectators for our league games at The York School. It is important to check the requirements at each one of our locations, as different facilities have different rules!

Are There Refunds Or Rain Checks If I Miss My Drop-In Session?

No, there are no refunds for missed sessions, and they are not transferrable.

When Do Drop-In Registrations Open?

Drop-in registrations open 14 days before the session date.

What Happens If The Drop-In Or Technical Training Session I Signed Up And Paid For Is Cancelled?

In the unfortunate case a drop-in or clinic is cancelled, you will be notified ASAP via email, and your payment will be fully refunded.

How Far In Advance Will I Be Notified Of A School Closure/Cancellation?

We aim to provide notice of closures/cancellations as early as possible to minimize any inconveniences, so as soon as we are notified by the facility, we do our best to notify all affected players ASAP!

What Is Taught During The Clinic Training (Lessons, Advice, Teaching Techniques, Peppering, Etc.)?

Our sessions are focused on technical training, for athletes to learn and develop their skills. Our coaches teach all techniques used in volleyball!

Do The Clinics Include Practice Games?

Our sessions are focused on training. There is some gameplay, but no formalized teams or matches, and the sessions are focused on players getting better at the game.

Can I Join A Clinic With A Friend?

This is always subject to availability! Our programs fill up quickly, so if you are interested in signing up with a friend(s), we suggest moving quickly.

Are There Requirements To Join The Clinics?

There are no requirements. Athletes and families self-assess based on the level they think they best fit with, and select the programs they would like. If our staff feel that a program is not the right fit for an athlete, we will recommend other options or refund for the program!
