Volleyball
Volleyball at Westminster is one of our largest and most inclusive sports, with strong participation across the Senior School. The program caters for students at all levels, from those learning the game for the first time to those competing at an elite standard. Training and competition are structured to ensure that every student can learn and enjoy being part of a team, while upholding the expectations outlined in the Co-curricular Code of Conduct.
One of the strengths of our program is the breadth of teams available. With a wide range of squads across year levels and abilities, every student will find a team suited to their level of experience and confidence. First-time players are supported to build fundamental skills in a friendly and positive environment, while more experienced players are challenged to refine their tactical decision-making and teamwork.
Westminster is fortunate to have a number of coaches who have an association with the South Australian Institute of Sport and its volleyball pathways. This connection provides students with access to high level coaching and contemporary training approaches that support ongoing development and performance.
For students seeking higher level competition, Westminster enters teams in both the SA Schools Cup and the Australian Schools Cup on the Gold Coast each year. These extension opportunities allow motivated players to test themselves in a competitive national environment.
