Philosophy

Please note that the OVA program is very competitive. The athletes will be selected according to their present skill level and athletic ability, their intensity, work ethic, and their likely role within the team chemistry. Our oldest U18 group has a philosophy of developing athletes for entry into College/University.

Although it is not an equal pay/ equal play program, equal opportunity will be given to all athletes, but those athletes portraying characteristics outlined by the coaching staff may see more court time. The players will be pushed to compete in every practice and ultimately there will be growth and development for them because of their commitment. In general, we are looking for interested athletes who wish to expand their level of play.

We are looking for fully committed athletes, however multi-sport athletes are most welcome, and will not be discouraged from participating in other activities. The OVA group will generally practice twice per week depending on athlete, coach, and gym availability. The Teams will compete in 4-6 tournaments concluding with Provincial Championships around Mid-April.
