Training

12U, 13U and 14U teams normally train two or three times a week from 6 to 8 pm and and 15U, 16U, 17U and 18U teams normally train 3 times a week, from 8 to 10 pm. Competitions are approximately held once every 4 to 6 weeks. Some teams may elect to also play 'up' in an older age group and compete more often. Competitions are usually held within the GTA but occasionally held outside this region.
Fees

Pakmen Volleyball is a registered not-for-profit organization driven by volunteers. Our club fees are strictly based on breaking even and are among the lowest in the OVA. Anyone interested in trying out for a Rep Team must attend the tryouts in September. There is a $20 tryout fee. 12U, 13U and 14U players can expect to pay between $1000 and $1200 (depending on gear, accessories and number of tournaments) for the 2017-2018 competitive season. Team fees for the older teams will be higher as they receive more gear, play in more tournaments, etc. Their fees tend to range from 1400 to 1900. Each team will be presented a budget, discussed and finalized at a parents meeting, right after the team has been selected.
Testimonials

"I came to Pakmen volleyball with little to no skill and with the help of the outstanding coaching staff, I was able to grow as a player and a person. Pakmen volleyball club has prepared me for volleyball at the CIS and provincial level. Being exposed to a high level of play requires high level coaches and Pakmen is always striving to find high level coaches to get the competitive edge."
Brandon Koppers OUA Rookie All Star Team 19U Provincial Team (All Star) Canada Summer Games Team 21U Jr. National Team

"When I think of Pakmen, I think of where everything started for me. As my volleyball career comes to an end, I look back on the early years and what I learned from them. If it wasn't for Pakmen and the kickstart that the organization gave me, I don't know if I'd have had the success that I've had today."
Niko Rukavina Queen's University (Captain) OUA All-Star Professional Volleyball Player

"My decision to play for Pakmen was the best career volleyball decision I made. I got exceptional coaching with great practices and great teammates; it blossomed my career as a professional volleyball player. Pakmen, I wasn't ready for this great experience!"
Daniel Dearing Canadian National Team Player
