DOME DEFENDERS is our new name for the Jr Canucks Club. The name may be changing but the principles are the same. We are a club that focuses on Youth DEVELOPMENT for young athletes that are new to volleyball & wanting to work hard to improve in the competitive steam. 

In the 2021/2022 season we offered U12-U16 Girls and Boys programs. These groups included 30+ athletes each which added up to over 275 athletes in the program. Those athletes learned the game together in practice settings. All teams & athletes developed significantly in terms of coachability, volleyball skills, teamwork, and competitiveness & hopefully they also acquired a stronger love of the game. Special shout out to the 13U Boys who were the clubs first ever Provincial Champions in Division 1. Many of the other groups also had success in their various divisions and age groups throughout the season! 

A component that we were very excited to offer last season was Beach Volleyball. Each of the Dome Defenders groups had 2 indoor practices (@ the GYM - #250, 10 Stonehill Pl NE) and 1 beach practice (@ The Volleydome - 2825 24th Ave NW) a week. The Volleydome facility now has 2 indoor sand courts and a large training area. We believe that Beach Volleyball is a great way for volleyball players to develop all of their skills and tactics. It also helps with vertical jump and agility. We would like to continue to have beach volleyball as a part of the Dome Defenders program.
