Men's Volleyball

The Brandeis Men’s Volleyball Club is a competitive club sports team that was founded in 2002. We compete in Division 2 of the New England Collegiate Volleyball League (NECVL). This year, we finished 10-5 in league play, losing in the semifinals to WPI, to finish tied for 3rd place out of 22 teams. We play year-round, with the fall being preseason, and the spring being our regular season. Each year we compete in roughly 8 tournaments, and scrimmage regularly. The club is open to anyone, no experience is necessary, you only need to have the desire to play and improve. We practice Mondays and Wednesdays from 9:45 pm – 11:45 pm in the Lower Gym in Gosman.
