Volleyball is a leisure/competitive club
Volleyball is offered over two sessions per week. We encourage members to choose only one session to attend. Additionally, both club days are currently/usually open to all levers (beginner, intermediate, and advanced), however, depending on registration numbers and player level/skill distribution, the executives may choose to split the days for particular levels to better serve the needs of all members.
Specifically, one day will be "Recreational" (open to all levels, particularly oriented towards beginners/lower level intermediates) and the other day "Competitive" (open only to higher-level intermediate and advanced players).
Players are asked to attend the days to which they are well-suited for. The implementation of the split days is due to safety concerns and to enhance the experience for all club members.
The Wrestling club practices freestyle and Greco-Roman-style wrestling only. All other forms are strictly prohibited.
