Participation in SJV Volleyball is open to all Parish youth members who are registered in Christian Formation Programming or Parish school students in grades 5 - 8.
Team practices start the week of team splits. If grades/genders need to conduct splits, those will count as practices. Coaches contact their team with weekly practice days and times. Grades 5 & 6 teams practice twice a week for 1½ hours each; Grades 7 & 8 teams practice twice a week for up to 2 hours each. League matches start in the beginning of September and finish in October.
League matches consist of three games. Rally scoring is used — first two games to 25; 3rd game to 15. The 3rd game is played regardless of the outcome of the first two games. Each team is to provide one parent line judge for each match.
Boys team league play is generally on Friday evenings and girls play on Saturdays. There are usually no regular league matches on Sunday, however the league reserves the right to schedule as needed.
St. John Vianney Shamrocks participate in the Metro Volleyball Conference. Team schedules can be found on their web page.
