2025 Max Volley Outdoor Summer League 2's, 3's and 4's
Updated Nov 25, 2024
Adult leagues
The 2025 adult league summer season will run from the week of May19th through to Aug 29th including playoffs (all teams qualify for playoffs) Playoffs will be a hybrid version this year. For most leagues, the top 6 or 12 teams will run a single elimination playoff over 2 weeks. Teams will be ranked by their average tier for the last 5 weeks. The remaining teams will run a 2 week tier based playoff as we did in 2024.
The league will run up to 15 weeks including playoffs depending on the weather. To place teams appropriately in the league, new teams in the Shefford Monday-Tuesday and Thursday doubles leagues will play in a ranking night the week of May 12th, on your league night, and then we will merge teams into the main leagues the following week.
Returning teams will have the option to play exhibition games the week of May 12th.
The start time is 6:30 sharp on a nightly basis; it is suggested that teams show up at least 15 minutes ahead of time in order to give themselves sufficient time to warm-up.
The west leagues play at the Bell Sensplex or at Franco-Ouest Highschool in Bells Corners, the east leagues will play at the Shefford courts.
There are no age limits for the adult leagues but we suggest players be over 16 years old.
Youth Leagues
The youth leagues will run for up to 10 weeks (weather depending) starting the week of May 26th, with playoffs starting the week of August 4th. The league will be tiered (like the main league) and the initial rankings will be by age. U14, U15, U16 or U17.
Max Volley has partnered with The Maverick Volleyball Club to run a Beach Volleyball Development Center which includes playing in the Max Volley youth league once a week and participating in a weekly Maverick clinic on Sundays. If you are interested in this combination, register directly with the Mavericks.
Link available soon.
Free Agents
If you are a single player looking to play, register as a Free Agent and then refer to the free agent list to find team-mates.
Returning Teams Ranking Procedure
Returning teams will be placed according to the 2024 summer league final week of playoffs. Returning teams (teams that have one player returning are considered returning teams) must indicate the tier you were in for the final week of playoffs. This will be available via the playoff schedules link on the register page.
New Teams Ranking
For new teams, the categories are as follows:
AA- Intended for teams that have high level beach volleyball experience
A- Competitive
B- Intermediate
C- Recreational
If you are not sure what category to choose please choose the lower one.
New teams in the Shefford Monday-Tuesday and Thursday doubles leagues will play in a ranking night the week of May 12th, on your league night, and then we will merge teams into the main leagues the following week. Max Volley reserves the right to shift teams up or down a few tiers based on their results over the first few weeks of the season.
League Tiering
Once the season starts and teams have been placed in tiers based on the above, the tiering system will work as follows: Most tiers will be composed of three teams. These teams will play 2 sets to 21 against the other two teams in their tier.(cap at 23) The team with the best results will move up one tier the following week, the second place team will remain in that tier, and the losing team will go down one tier for the following week. Captains will be asked to update their results on the website weekly as scheduling will be automated.
Weather Policy
The league will be run rain or shine (unless there are persisting thunderstorms or flooding). Please consult the court status boxes that are available on the first page of the schedule website (rankings.maxvolley.com) to see if the league is cancelled for the night when there is inclement weather. If a league is cancelled we will also email/text players and post it on our website. There are usually no make-up nights as the league is intended to be 11 weeks in a 14 week period.
If a specific league night has been canceled too many times, we may schedule a make-up night on Friday July 25th and/or August 8th and/or August 15th.
