Important Rule Updates from Volleyball Canada
- Please note that starting this 2026 season, there have been some Volleyball Canada rule changes that will be applicable to game play for all Zone and Championship events. For the complete details of the rule changes, please refer to the Volleyball Canada rules on their website, or for a summary of the most recent changes, see the bulletin HERE.
Berthing
- Each zone received an automatic berth (host school also receives a berth)
- If a zone does not have a team, berth gets allocated to the wild card pool.
- 3 additional berths will be allocated based on the percentage of active senior programs in each BCSS zone. *
- If a zone does not fill their berth, it will be allocated to the at-large berth pool.
- Zones will need to inform BCSS Staff if they are declining their allocated berths by November 6th.
- The remaining berths will be allocated by the ranking committees in early November.
Championship Format
- At the conclusion of the power pool play, all 16 teams will enter a traditional single-elimination bracket.
- The winners of each power pool will be moved up one spot (i.e., The winner of power pool B (teams 5-8) will be seeded 4th in the elimination bracket) while the last place team in each power pool will drop one seed (i.e., the last place team in power pool B (teams 5-8) will be seeded 9th in the elimination bracket).
