Australian Sports Commission confirms volleyball is all the rage

The appeal of volleyball in Australia has been underlined by the results of the Australian Sports Commission’s first ever national survey of sport participation across the nation.

The AusPlay survey shows volleyball is not just the most gender-equal in Australia, but it is also the third biggest Olympic team sport, one of the largest team sports by participation, and is popular from young children through to the over 50’s. There are more than 240,000 volleyballers throughout Australia.

“These results back up what we have been saying about volleyball for a long time in Australia,” Volleyball Australia President, Craig Carracher, said. For further information, visit http://www.volleyballaustralia.org/post/australian-sports-commission-confirms-volleyball-is-all-the-rage

Volleyball WA acknowledges the Aboriginal peoples as the traditional custodians of the land in Western Australia and we recognise the Noongar people as the original custodians of the land of our State Volleyball Office. We pay respect to them and their Elders both past and present. We acknowledge that they have occupied and cared for the lands in which we operate over countless generations and we celebrate their continuing connection to land, water and culture. Together, may we all continue to care for this land and each other.
