Volleyball Canada is excited to release information for Team Canada Women’s Age-Class National Team programs. Team Canada U21, U19, and Canada Cup Red & White will be offered from June to August 2025.

"Team Canada Women’s age-class programs are critical for talent identification and the ongoing development of potential athletes across Canada. We continue to work to provide meaningful opportunities for each age group to ensure multiple entry points throughout the pathway.
