Preparations for our Junior State Teams move into the final weeks, with the six-team delegation set to depart for Adelaide on 8th July to compete at the 2026 Australian Junior Volleyball Championships (AJVC).
The Junior Championships play a vital role in providing competitive opportunities and a clear development pathway for volleyball athletes in the U19 – U23 age brackets. State Associations from across Australia will be sending their strongest teams to vie for national honours.
Congratulations to the athletes and coaches selected to represent Western Australia at this year’s Junior Championships. The Volleyball WA community is proud of you and wishes you every success.
