Age Categories (2022/23)
Why would a athlete want to play in a different age category?
In short, the large discrepancies that can occur between youth within the same birth year create significant disadvantages for late developing athletes. Volleyball Yukon provides a 16 month range within all age group divisions so that athletes have greater flexibility to choose a level that best suits there needs.
Can my child play up?
Yes. Athletes who play at an advanced level would benefit from the challenge of playing up an age category. Athletes are permitted to play up as long as they have approval from their club volleyball organization.
Can my child play down?
Yes. As long as their birth year is within the allowed range as stated in the table above.
Should i consider playing down?
Athletes, parents and coaches should consider the short term and long term benefits of playing down an age category ​
Should i consider playing up?
Volleyball Canada recommends that if playing up provides the needed challenge for improvement, and no significant social/emotional drawbacks exists in the older age category, then athletes should play up.
