In an exciting turn of events, our EVP team quickly adapted to a venue change for the Senior PVL Final volleyball matches. Hosted at The Gap SHS, our community rallied together to organise a fantastic fundraiser. The evening was a resounding success and we are looking forward to being able to put the significant funds raised towards some big plans for the future. This unexpected opportunity showcased our program’s flexibility and the strong support from our volleyball community and parents.
Our athletes made us proud at the recent Senior Schools Cup by demonstrating our elite values as a program on and off the court. The competition saw high-level volleyball across all divisions, with our senior athletes competing alongside our intermediate athletes, to form our top 4 senior teams. Our senior athletes demonstrated exceptional leadership on the court, guiding and supporting younger players from Years 9 and 10 who stepped up to compete. Our intermediate athletes were well within their depth at this level of competition leaving us excited for the future of our program. This cross-year collaboration highlights the strength and depth of our program.
As we look to the future, we're excited to announce that our Year 7 cohort for 2025 is taking shape. With an overwhelming interest in the program for 2025 we are looking to accommodate as many talented young athletes as possible and start them off with a love for the sport early. To ensure a smooth transition, we're planning special training sessions for these incoming students during the remainder of this year as well as our “come and try” sessions which will also run for the remainder of the year and be open to all interested primary school students. These sessions will familiarise our new athletes with the program, our facilities, and our coaching methods, setting them up for success from day one.
We're incredibly proud of our athletes, coaches, and supporters who continue to make the EVP a standout program. Stay tuned for more updates and opportunities to support our young volleyball stars!
