Our Mission
The University of Minnesota Men’s Volleyball Club provides an opportunity for male students to play competitive, organized intercollegiate volleyball in the local, Big 10, Midwest regional and national circuits.
Currently, the club offers two levels of play. The NIVC team allows players that are still developing the opportunity to participate in intercollegiate tournaments with teams across the Midwest. The Big Ten Team, which is comprised of the top players at the school, competes in collegiate club tournaments throughout the country, including a full Big 10 schedule. For the 2023 Fall semester, both teams will have the same schedule and will play in 4 tournaments, which can be found under the "tournaments" tab. The Spring 2024 semester schedule and tournament locations are to be determined. The National Tournament will be held in Kansas City in April 2024.
Practices are held 2 nights per week during the Fall and Spring semesters. During practice, club members will learn the fundamentals of organized volleyball, with special attention paid to the specific skills necessary for a player's designated position. These practices are held at 8:45 on Mondays and 6:45 on Wednesdays because of the limited availability of The Pavillion where we hold practices.
Over the past several years, the University of Minnesota Men’s Volleyball club has established itself as one of the top teams in the country! We hope to continue developing and exceeding expectations in the national tournament.
