“I am thrilled to host this event with the support of BioSteel, Mizuno and Volleyball Canada.  Having three kids playing volleyball has exposed me even more to this great game over the past 8 years. This is a day to recognize the best young female players in Canada and showcase their talents on a National level. It’s another opportunity to grow girls volleyball across the country. I’m also delighted that we have Lauri Holomis, Teresa Resch and Luana Harris as advisors for this event. These three women have all excelled in their respective fields and are great role models for these young women as they continue their education and their future after volleyball.” - Gerry Dee.

“It’s great to see this event coming together to promote women’s volleyball and give some of the all-star players from our club championships another opportunity to play and showcase their skills” - Sandra de Graaff, Director Domestic Competitions, Volleyball Canada

Dave Bartlett, the Director of Sales and Marketing for Mizuno Canada added his thoughts on why they got involved in the event. “Mizuno is extremely honoured to play a role in the first BioSteel All Canadian Girls Volleyball Games! It will be a great weekend for all the participants, and we are excited to see this initiative enhance the future growth of women’s volleyball in Canada.”
