Aquinas College Volleyball
Volleyball at Aquinas College is a popular choice among all year groups, but especially with our Year 7/8 students. Volleyball is suitable for all experience levels, from beginner to years of experience. Games are played at either QEYC Arena, Memorial Park in Tauranga or at the ASB Arena at Baypark, Mount Maunganui. There are opportunities for teams to attend the North Island Champs, New Zealand Champs and also several Bay of Plenty competitions throughout the year.
Registrations for Volleyball in Term 4 are now open and close on the 8 September. Please view on the Registration and Trials tab.
Teams are registered through Tauranga Volleyball for local competitions and more information can be found on their website
