Volleyball League Fees & Offerings

The City of Ventura offers 10-week Indoor Coed Volleyball leagues in the summer for $250 per team plus $10 per game for officials.

Volleyball League Format

The City of Ventura's leagues currently utilize a round robin. Teams will play games on Wednesday nights for 7 weeks, and continue league play with a post season single elimination tournament to determine an overall champion in each division.

Volleyball League Schedules

Schedules will be available for pickup at mandatory managers meetings.
