The Momentum Volleyball League Off to a Successful Start

Check out the fun, competitive play that the Momentum adult volleyball league is bringing to Toronto.

For eight weeks, from October 27th to December 15th, Momentum Volleyball has had the pleasure of running a successful six-team adult volleyball league, hosted at the Toronto Volleyball Centre. Running from 7-10PM, each team played nearly two hours of volleyball each week. Momentum Volleyball was able to put on this Adult League season successfully and safely, following all necessary COVID-19 precautions.

This is the first of many adult leagues to be put on by Momentum Volleyball, with a second, already sold-out winter season running on Wednesday nights from January 5th to March 16th, followed by a spring season on Wednesdays from March 23rd to June 1st.

New Wednesday Daytime League

Additionally, starting January 26th, Momentum Volleyball will be adding a Wednesday Daytime League at the following times:

– 12:00PM – 2:00PM

– 2:00PM – 4:00PM

Teams will get 1.5 – 2 hours of game play each week!

For Winter Leagues, players will also have 30 minutes of Free Play available before or after each session.

12pm league will have Free Play before: 11:30am-12:00pm

2pm league will have Free Play after: 4:00pm-4:30pm

7pm league will have Free Play before: 6:30pm-7:00pm

9pm league will have Free Play after: 11:00pm-11:30pm

These free play times are meant for people to warm up, get some extra chances to play, and for some buffer for league members to arrive on time! For all information regarding Momentum Leagues and to register, visit our League page here.
