Volleyball League

Key Dates

• Registration Deadline: Thursday, October 2, 2025

• Leagues Start: Week of October 20, 2025

Divisions

There are two team divisions – Recreation and Competitive.  Games take place in the UTGSU gym at 16 Bancroft Avenue on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings, from 5:00PM to 10:00PM, October to April.  

Competitive division includes hard spiking, blocking, and strict rules. For new players, an informal “tryout” will be held in late September (Tuesday or Wednesday) to help facilitate team selection.

Recreation division means anything goes in a just-for-fun manner. There are no playoffs. 

Not sure what League you are in? There will be two dates for tryouts and league matching. This is mandatory for individuals not registered as a team in the Competitive League.

• Friday, October 3, 2025 | 5:00PM-9:00PM
• Saturday, October 4, 2025 | 1:00PM-5:00PM

More dates may be added and more information will be shared closer to the date.

Registration

Registration is completed through HelloRubric – the UTGSU’s Membership Platform. There are registration forms for individuals and teams. 

• All players are required to complete the Individual Registration Form (except Team Captains). Individuals without a team will be matched with a team. Individuals can also volunteer to be team captains without any team.
• Team Captains can register entire or partial teams through the Team Captain Form. Team captains should ensure their team members complete the Individual Registration Form.

Team Captains: Please list your player’s names, departments and student ID numbers. Please note that the Intramural League is a mixed-gender league (based on self-identification first-and-foremost). Teams may have a maximum of four players of any gender on the court at all times. 

All Volleyball League information, such as team captains, schedules, rules and playoff information will be posted on this website.

Please note: All Volleyball League participants must also complete a Gym Liability Waiver for the 2025-26 year.

Scheduling

Games are scheduled by the Building & Program Lead two Fridays in advance. Games will be scheduled on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings between 5:00PM and 10:00PM. 

Creating a game schedule is complicated and we are unable to accommodate all playing-time requests. Teams should aim to have additional players to ensure that a full roster is available on all dates. Hard un-available times should be communicated to volleyball@utgsu.ca but may not be accommodated.  In respect of the other team’s time and commitment, Team Captain’s should communicate unavailability the week prior (or at minimum 48 hours in advance) to volleyball@utgsu.ca. Failure to provide notice will result in forfeiture and potential removal from the league.

League Rules

Reporting

After each game the captains will report their scores to the Building & Program Lead located in the office outside the Gym. If the Building & Program Lead is not present a representative from each team will send an email to volleyball@utgsu.ca, to report the game’s results.  

Email messages indicating game scores should include: 

• Division: 
• Date of and time of play:
• Teams: 
• Score: Winner; and the number of sets won and lost
