“As momentum builds and our numbers continue to grow, it's important to remember that the female and male versions of our sport help each other immensely. There are very few sports that can say that. Without question, having a boys volleyball team will help your girls team and vice versa.

With 38 teams competing from 22 schools, it's fair to say that the inaugural Minnesota Boys High School Volleyball season far exceeded any of our expectations. The response was phenomenal.”

Walt Weaver, MN Hall of Fame/Northern Lights Club Coach & MN Boys High School Volleyball Association Director

“The inaugural Minnesota Boys’ high school season was a huge success by any standard and we are now in preparation for a second season to be held Spring of 2019.

I cannot tell you how excited I am by what I saw last season. I was at several matches at several sites and the level of excitement and passion I witnessed was shocking.  A highlight was a match between Farmington and Lakeville South at South.  The stands were full with fans, the National Anthem played,  we had introductions of players and a highly contested match with boisterous fans on both sides.  I knew then that nothing would stop this mission, and that someday I would be sitting at the Xcel watching the Boys High School State Volleyball Championship.”
