Volleyball NSW affiliation is an annual fee paid by clubs that allows them to engage and access a wide range of benefits according to their affiliation type. Volleyball NSW is always accepting new affiliate applications throughout the year, with the affiliation period running from January 1st, through to December 31st.
Volleyball NSW especially encourages regional clubs to reach out and inquire about how we can support your local volleyball community. Whether you're in a new or established region, we're here to assist and help you make the most of your affiliation with us.
The conditions of affiliation require that ALL members who consume volleyball in conjunction with our affiliated clubs, and VNSW-sanctioned events, require an active VNSW membership.
