Frequently asked questions:
Do I have to go to all four sessions? No, you can come to one session or all four. We only ask that you contact us so we know you’re coming.
Do I need to know how to play Sitting Volleyball? No, we’ll go over the rules and teach you some skills before we play.
Do I need a team? No, teams will be made each night from the players that come. We’ll likely mix the teams up during each session so you get to meet new people.
What do I bring: Clothing you feel comfortable playing in. Most people play in shorts or track pants and a t-shirt but we have no rules. We’ll have balls ready and a net set up when you get there.
Do I need to have a disability to play? The program is intended for individuals with a disability, however anyone who wants to play Sitting Volleyball is welcome. Please note that priority will be given to players with a disability should more than 12 people want to play.
Is this program appropriate for people with any type of disability? To play Sitting Volleyball individuals need to have their buttocks on the floor. Players typically move and play the ball with their hands which makes the game great for lower limb amputees.
 
We aim to be as inclusive as possible and endeavor to provide a quality and fun experience for everyone, regardless of disability. If you have specific questions, please feel free to contact VNS Executive Director Jason Trepanier.
