QAS Volleyball

QAS Volleyball Program

The Volleyball Australia Queensland Academy of Sport Volleyball Program is a partnership between Volleyball Australia (VA) and Queensland Academy of Sport (QAS).

The QAS Volleyball Program was established to provide a regular high performance training environment for young athletes that have been identified as having the potential to play volleyball (beach and/or indoor) at the international level for Australia, with the ultimate goal of successful performance at the Olympics.

The QAS Volleyball Program feeds into school, club, and state squad activities. We encourage all of our athletes to participate in these other programs simultaneously with their QAS training to create a daily training regimen.

Entry into the QAS Volleyball Pathway is normally via the Emerging Talent Program (the single-entry point for all QAS Volleyball athletes).

Emerging Talent Program

Welcome to the Volleyball Australia Emerging Talent Program (Queensland).

The Emerging Talent program is the first stepping point and entry point into the Volleyball Australia High Performance program. It, along with the VA Elite Development program and the QAS YouFor2032 Beach Volleyball program, are the ONLY nationally-aligned Volleyball Australia pathway programs based in the state of Queensland.

Our goal is to unearth and cultivate the future stars of volleyball and to provide them training and competitive opportunities under the guidance of Australian national high-performance program coaches and support staff.

Countless numbers of former Emerging Talent and Elite Development program athletes have gone on to represent Volleyball Queensland at state level, and many have gone on to represent Australia in both beach and indoor volleyball on the world stage, including representation at Asian Beach and Indoor Championships, Youth Olympic Games, Youth Commonwealth Games and the Rio, Tokyo and Paris Olympic Games (Taliqua Clancy, Mark Nicolaidis) and many of our athletes are now active members in Senior Volleyroos and Senior Beach Volleyroos programs.

Our Program: The Emerging Talent Program is your entry point to the Volleyball Australia and QAS volleyball high-performance pathway. Through inspiring athletes to become the best versions of themselves and adopting the program values of care and respect, we facilitate their journey to potential future Australian, International and Olympic-level representation.

Join Us: If you’re a young athlete with a fervent passion for volleyball, consider the opportunity to join our Emerging Talent Program.
