Volleyball Season Begins in March 2026

We are in a division this year with SJAM, Queen Elizabeth, Colonel Irvine, Senator Patrick Burns, and TB Riley.  As a division, we have agreed upon similar expectations for games that promote safety, respect and a positive experience for players, coaches, other spectators and the hosting school. The expectations are as follows: 

  • All students (spectators and athletes) must leave school at the end of the day, before the games start at 4:00pm. Students who wish to stay to watch Vanier play need to have permission from the staff to stay to supervise. 
  • Players who remain at the school must remain in the gym and are not to be wandering the school.   Also, food and drink are not permitted in the gym.  
  • For all Away games, students must have their own parent or guardian accompany them to all games. They may not be supervised by someone who is not their parent/guardian.   
  • There are no in and out privileges for spectators. If you leave the building you should not re-enter. 
  • All visitors must enter our building through the schools main doors only. Entrance through an alterative door may trigger security protocols and result in significant consequences for students letting others in the school. This would be a significant security risk for everyone in the building. 
  • Student spectators without parental supervision will be directed by the hosting school administration to leave the building immediately. 
  • All spectators are expected to cheer and support the players, coaches, referees, etc. in a positive manner. 
  • Disrespectful behaviour from students or spectators will be addressed by the hosting school administration as well as your home school administration as a follow up. The student and parent code of conduct applies at all times. Spectators may be asked to leave the school depending on the severity of the issue. Parents also may be asked not to return. 
  • Parents/guardians who bring younger children are responsible for direct supervision at all times. The rest of the school is closed and off limits. Please ensure children are not in the hallways or playing on the stage or with any school equipment. 

Athletics Try-Outs at Georges P. Vanier

Students were given an Athletic Tryout form in their welcome packages (blue forms), which must be returned if they are attending Tryouts. All information will be posted on the Athletics Board outside the gymnasium and posted on our school announcements, in addition to our website.

Students/Parents will be responsible for transportation to and from all practices and games.
