VDP Winter Session 2024: UPDATES

Hello,

Winter VDP begins this Saturday January 13, at Forest Heights

Collegiate located at 255 Fischer-Hallman Road in Kitchener.

There are two date changes from what was originally posted on our website: Saturdays Feb 3 and 10 have been changed to Sundays Feb 4 and 11 and the location moved to St Mary’s High School at 1500 Block Line Road in Kitchener.

 See the schedule below.

These  changes are due to the large number of registrations (especially those born in 2010), and to two school cancellations in February. We have tried to keep the new session times as close as possible to the original ones.

Cost:  $100.00 payable in cash on the first day Saturday January 13.  If you start on January 20 then pay then.  Financial assistance is available at Kidsport.  There is a direct link on our website.

What to bring:

  • A water bottle (although there is a fountain)
  • Gym clothes - running shoes.
  • You do not need to bring a ball - Volleyballs balls are provided.

VDP is headed by head coach Terry Hinschberger and assisted by a number of senior Tigers athletes.  The Tigers hope that everyone has a great time learning and playing the sport of volleyball!

Thank you.

John Nelson
Tigers President

2023-2024 SELECTS Tryouts

SELECTS Program

We are looking for young players to participate in our TIGERS Selects program. We will form ‘Selects’ teams from 12u to 16/17u to learn the skills of volleyball and participate against similar teams from other nearby clubs in a fun and friendly environment. This would be an inexpensive non-OVA form of play in a mini-tournament and exhibition format. This gives players an opportunity to be introduced to volleyball and play against similar age and skill-level opponents with emphasis on development and self confidence.

Costs are kept as low as possible to encourage participation. Teams practice 1-2 times per week and Tigers uniforms will be included. The SELECTS program is an option for athletes competing in other sports to be introduced to team volleyball and try it out without having to make the greater financial and time commitments of rep OVA volleyball.

Players from our regular VDP may be asked to participate in the TIGERS Selects program. The selects players are training to compete, which is mid-way between VDP and REP.

1) Tigers VDP – Learning to play
2) Tigers Selects – Training to compete
