Jan 29, 2024: Men’s indoor athletes who meet the criteria may now apply for Volleyball Canada’s 2024 National Excellence Program (NEP), designed for provincially or nationally identified athletes in Grades 10 to 12 (or equivalent).
The NEP will help prepare athletes to continue their development toward the National Senior Team Program and/or playing professional volleyball. It offers individual technical and tactical skill development as well as team play refinement. Athletes will receive sport science and sport medicine services, dispensed by leading practitioners in a holistic high-performance environment. NEP athletes, through training and exhibition competition, are also introduced to leading international volleyball programs and clubs.
