Summer Season 2025/26
We’re now around the halfway mark of our summer season, and we’re excited to see competition return on Monday 2nd February at the Minerdome in Wendouree.
The standard of play and the atmosphere across our four Monday night divisions has been outstanding this season, with skill, enthusiasm and enjoyment on full display each week. Our Women’s, A Grade and B Grade competitions continue to showcase strong volleyball, excellent sportsmanship, and plenty of friendly rivalry.
The introduction of our new Prems division has been a fantastic addition, giving experienced players the opportunity to perform at a high level while still enjoying the social and community-focused spirit that defines Volleyball Ballarat.

VOLLEYBALL BALLARAT TRAINING
Volleyball Ballarat runs weekly training sessions tailored to various age groups and skill levels, held every Wednesday evening during school terms
With a steady increase in numbers at our training sessions, 2026 sees Volleyball Ballarat moving to a larger facility to better support our growing community. This move allows us to continue developing participants across all levels — from building strong fundamental skills and match play experience, through to preparing participants for regional tournaments.
From Wednesday 4th February, training will be held at Ballarat Grammar School – Rintel Centre, where we will have access to three courts across our training sessions.
Alongside the venue change, we’ll be introducing a slightly updated training schedule with more focused, level-based sessions to ensure players get the most out of their time on court.
More information can be found under our TRAINING page
A huge shout out to our dedicated coaching team, who continue to invest their time, energy and expertise into the ongoing improvement of our training sessions. The substantial growth we’ve seen across the program is a true testament to their commitment and dedication.
Interested in giving training a go? New players are always welcome to attend a free trial session. Please contact us in advance so we can place you in the most appropriate session: training@volleyballballarat.com.au
