Sophie Bruner

I started playing for PVC when I was in grade 9. Before the club season I had been a new student and spent a large amount of my school season riding the bench. I never complained about it and loved cheering my team on, however I felt very discouraged and wanted to quit. My friends were trying out for the team and I reluctantly tagged along. The decision to try out for Parksville Volleyball Club was one of the best choices I have made. The amazing coaches, players, and club organizers provided me with a safe space to learn to love the sport and learn to love myself.

During my grade 6-7 year, I played on the school team but I always felt like something was missing and I was thinking about quitting. During my grade 7 year I heard about PVC and decided to try out for U14, I didn’t have much hope as I was younger than everyone else but the coaches took a chance on me and for that I’m forever grateful, I finally realized what was missing...it was the competition and the fire that PVC provided for me along with new skills and support from the coaches. Being on that court with my team brings so much joy into my life and I wouldn’t wanna be playing anywhere else.

If you have reviewed this information and still have questions, please feel free to email the Club with any questions.
Can players from other communities outside of Parksville Try Out for the Competitive Volleyball Teams?
Yes, players from other communities can Try Out. The coaches are the ones who determine which players are offered positions to the teams.
Once Club Fees are paid, can these be refunded if the player or family rescind their position on the team?
No, because the Club Fees are used to purchase equipment required for the season. Families and Players are encouraged to take this into consideration when they make the decision to commit the player for the season prior to accepting the offer.
Parent volunteerism is strongly encouraged by Parskville Volleyball Club, but what if I only have time to complete a specific function?
There are formal leadership, coaching roles and team parent roles that are required to keep the Club operational. However, it has been great to have parents offer help in specific areas, such as grant writing, fundraising, team activity organization, club activity organization, etc. We encourage parents to reach out to the Club and offer assistance in any capacity.
