Competitive volleyball

"Competition - An activity that requires dedication and aims for development or success"

Competitive volleyball teams are for team players who possess dedication and a goal-oriented attitude.

Competitive section minimum level requirement: Intermediate Plus (C+).
For hobby level volleyball, check the Recreational section.

Competitive section

The competitive section is built around our teams that traditionally play in the Southern Finland Local (C+/B) and Regional (B/B+) volleyball divisions and participate in various student tournaments. Other activities the section organizes include, for instance, higher level playing sessions, friendly matches, and workouts.

Quick things to note about the nature of our teams:

Our trainings are primarily not lead by a coach. Instead we rely on a standard training format which includes differently themed volleyball drills and a good amount of play time.
Our target is not to push for the higher (national) divisions which require more organization.
Like true teekkaris, we train and play volleyball seriously but with a sense of humor.
