For aspiring players, attending trial sessions is highly encouraged to be considered for the BVC Bears. While trials are optional, all new players must register using the online registration form. For those who may not make the teams, the BVC Bears offer alternative opportunities through their other competitive programs or the in-house Social Leagues or Casual Training Squad.
Following the trials, the training sessions for each team will be determined. These sessions are usually held on Tuesday and Thursday evenings at Kelvin Grove State College. It is important for players to be available on both nights as most teams train twice a week. The club's website provides detailed address information and directions to the training venue.
Matches in the PVL are scheduled on Sundays at various locations in Brisbane and the Gold Coast. The complete season dates can be found on the PVL calendar provided by Volleyball Queensland. For up-to-date information on the competition, including draws, results, and ladders, players can refer to Volleyball Queensland's website.
Prior to attending trials, it is mandatory for all players, including new and existing members, to register. New players can create an account using the online registration form, while existing BVC members can complete their registration through the BVC App on the 'My Portal' page.
If players have any questions regarding trials or the season, they can reach out to the Bears Manager by sending an email to [email protected].
It is worth noting that the Premier Volleyball League has fostered a rich club history, with numerous teams attaining championship titles in different divisions throughout the years. The BVC Bears are proud of their contributions to this legacy.
