Bellarine Volleyball Association Incorporated

About

The Bellarine Volleyball Association started out as a day time competition in the mid 1990s and, due to its popularity, became Bellarine Volleyball Association Inc in 1997 and changed to Friday evenings. Friday night activities in Ocean Grove ceased at the end of 2024. 
2025 saw the launch of a new social competition on Tuesday nights at Deakin University.

Bellarine Volleyball runs two seasons throughout the year, Autumn (Feb – June) and Spring (July – December).

Tuesday evenings feature Mixed competition games. Games starts from 6:30pm and the evening concludes at 8:30pm.
