Mill Woods Recreational Volleyball Society

Background

The Mill Woods Recreation Volleyball Society (MWRVS) is an adult Edmonton Volleyball league with a rich history in the Edmonton area. MWRVS is a volleyball league that provides recreational volleyball to its members and promotes the importance of sportsmanship. The Society encourages amateur games and exercise. Our goal is to rank teams according to their calibre of play in order to promote close competition at all skill levels. The Membership is limited to people over the age of 18 and not currently playing on a post secondary institutional team. Each team consists of, at least, three male and three female players. We play every Tuesday night between 6:00pm-11:00pm dependent on gym scheduling and location. The league runs from September to April with a year-end tournament and banquet.

MWRVS League

Our league consists of 24 tiers, with tier 1 being the most competitive. Each tier will be made up of four teams. There are 8 three week rounds. The first three (3) rounds, two teams will move up and two teams will move down. The last five (5) rounds only one team moves up and one moves down.

Teams must register with a minimum of three men and three women, to a maximum of 12 people. If your initial registration has less than 12 players, you will have until December 21 to add additional players for the current season. Once you have reached your maximum of 12 players, you can make a number of player transfers until December 21, at a cost of $10.00 per transfer. The cheque must be made payable to Mill Woods Recreational Volleyball Society. Your roster will be final after this date, and no additions or transfers will be allowed.

Every player that registers within the league understands that information may be released within the league or to the City of Edmonton. Only players listed on your team roster will be allowed to play, and only registered players can play in the year-end tournament.

Tiers

MWRVS hosts a tier system of 22-26 tiers (depending on the number of teams registered per year), with tier 1 being the most competitive. Each tier will be made up of four teams. New teams will be placed in a tier as close to their skill level as possible. There is no guarantee for new teams being placed in their requested tier level.

Night of Play

Mill Woods Recreational Volleyball Society continues to schedule games on Tuesday nights. We will, however, have Wednesday and/or Thursday as an option night. Some games may be rescheduled due to extenuating circumstances.
