Club Director Resources

Club Director Resources

Volleyball BC seeks to support our volleyball Clubs in being as successful as possible in operating their individual local volleyball clubs. VBC has compiled a number of resources to support Club Directors in delivering volleyball, operating a club and preparing for the season. We will continue to build out the resources and documents to ensure that our member clubs are prepared and successful. 

Volleyball BC requires sanctioned volleyball clubs to demonstrate compliance with operating standards. For the 2025-2026 season, sanctioned clubs are required to provide the list of requirements below as part of their application for the upcoming season.

We recognise that clubs may not currently have some of these requirements so we have provided some templates and examples for clubs to tailor to their specific circumstances.  For more information read our summary document. 

  1. Acknowledgement and agreement to comply with the Club Operating Requirements outlined in the Memorandum of Understanding. 
  2. Completion of the Club Registration Form and payment of the associated fee.
  3. Agreement to uphold VBC Code of Conduct and Ethics and other supporting policies that are used to govern our sport. The policies can be found here.  
  4. Publication of a policy to address refunds, fines, or any other financial penalties that might be applied to participants on the club/organization’s website or main communications channel. (EXAMPLE – Volleyball BC Refund Policy)
  5. Publication of a complaint, dispute resolution, or issue resolution procedure and point of contact on the club/organization’s website or main communications channel. (TEMPLATE – Dispute Resolution Policy)
  6. Provision of a Parent/Guardian, Athlete and Coach Code of Conduct. (TEMPLATE – General Code of Conduct and Ethics, TEMPLATE – Parent Code of Conduct, TEMPLATE – Coach Code of Conduct, TEMPLATE – Athlete Code of Conduct)
  7. Provision of a Conflict of Interest Policy. (TEMPLATE – Conflict of Interest Policy)
  8. Commitment to inform VBC in writing to reporting@volleyballbc.org of any Disciplinary Sanctions imposed by your club against individuals registered with Volleyball BC.

The Regional Development Committee (RDC) is a staff committee that meets monthly to provide leadership, direction and support for the programs and events that are coordinated across BC for youth volleyball.

The Committee will perform the following key duties:
● Create policy for youth volleyball
● Set schedule of events for the club and beach seasons
● Coordinate provincial wide identification and development camps
● Oversee and plan coaching education and development opportunities
● Oversee and implement Atomic volleyball programs across the province
● Meet annually with club directors/representative in each region to gather input for the
upcoming club season (preferably in October)

The Committee has the authority to make decisions on rules for the club volleyball system. For any policy based decisions, the Committee will make recommendations for approval from the board of directors.

We’re proud to introduce our Safe Sport Handbook for volleyball clubs.

All the different information about safe sport can be confusing so we have decided to put it together for you in one place! This Handbook outlines the main requirements and measures you need to put in place to protect participants and respond to maltreatment and inappropriate behaviours. It covers topics such as:

  • our Code of Conduct and what it means
  • how to report behaviour that is not in line with our Code of Conduct
  • what does appropriate and inappropriate behaviour look like in volleyball?
  • screening and education requirements for leaders in volleyball
  • useful information and resources

There is a handy checklist for you to complete along with useful information and practical tips about how the topic is relevant in volleyball. 

Download and use this Handbook as your reference tool to ensure that volleyball at your club is safe and enjoyable.
