Due to the rising COVID-19 cases, the Government of Alberta has implemented new mandatory public health measures in communities across the province. These public health measures are in place to protect the health system and slow the spread of COVID-19. Considering the updated measures, Volleyball Alberta has adjusted dates pertaining to the signing process (tryout period) and our Premier Leagues (registration, start dates, etc.). Effective immediately, Volleyball Alberta is postponing the Tryout Period until January 2021.

Volleyball Alberta will continue to monitor the Government of Alberta’s guidelines and update important dates as necessary. If current restrictions are extended, Volleyball Alberta will readjust the dates considering the following situations:

• Current timeline remains intact
  • 5 weeks from the first day of tryout period to the first competition date
  • All dates will be shifted later
• Completion of the tryout period prior to the start of the leagues
• Allow physical preparation/team training prior to the start of the leagues
• Round 1 of competition will be 12 matches as outlined
• Round 2 competition structure/timeframe/cost may be adjusted and decreased to accommodate Volleyball Canada’s National Championships

Volleyball Alberta understands the concerns of our coaches, athletes & members during these unprecedented times and want to reassure our commitment to providing a competition season. Under the current restrictions, the following adjustments to the processes & leagues have been outlined below:
