Premier Volleyball League

The Premier Volleyball League (PVL) is the leading indoor volleyball competition in South-East Queensland. Matches run weekly from April to September, excluding special event weekends such as Schools Cup and State Championships. The league also hosts showcase matches on select Saturday nights for the Premier Division.

The PVL provides opportunities for both youth and adult players across multiple skill levels:

  • Tier 1 – Premier and Challenger divisions
  • Tier 2 – Divisions 1, 2, 3, and 4
  • Youth Tier – U15, U17, and U19 divisions

Clubs enter teams into the PVL, while individual players can trial to join club teams. Matches are held across multiple venues in Brisbane, with Tier 1 and 2 matches typically on Sundays and Youth Tier matches on Friday nights.

Participation in the PVL allows players to compete at a high standard, develop their skills, and for those in Premier and Challenger divisions, potentially gain exposure for higher-level competitions such as the Australian Volleyball Super League.
