2024 Max Volley Outdoor Summer League 2's, 3's and 4's
Updated Feb 20, 2024
The 2024 Summer season will run from the week of May 20th through to Aug 16th. Playoffs (all teams qualify for playoffs) will follow and will run for 2 weeks. For our 30th anniversary, playoffs will run differently this year with all teams playing both weeks of playoffs. Teams will have more chances to win prizes!
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 13th, 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 13th.
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 a new location in Bells Corners that will be confirmed soon, 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 27th, with playoffs starting the week of August 5th. 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.

Returning Teams Ranking Procedure
Returning teams will be ranked according to the 2023 summer final ranking, before playoffs. Returning teams (teams that have one player returning are considered returning teams) must indicate the overall spot you finished in the league last year, before playoffs. (not where you finished in playoffs nor within your division) This will be available via the playoff schedules link on the register page and have the rankings (1 through 90..) posted next to your team name.
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 13th, 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. 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 26th and/or August 9th and/or August 16th.
