Basketball leagues

Volo sports leagues operate a lot like the sports leagues of your youth. Most of our leagues are 5 to 8 weeks and culminate in a series of playoff games to crown a champion! A team t-shirt is always included with registration and you will receive it at your first game. Volo provides specially trained staff members, referees, equipment, and prizes for your game. By participating in leagues, you will also enjoy special invitations to Volo events, often including an end of season party. We strive to keep the games fair, safe, and stress free so that all you need to do is show up, play, socialize, and have a great time!

Competition Levels

Looking for a laid back league? This league is for you! Games are usually played on a shorter court than regulation size. There is 1 ref per game. If you are looking for a competitive league please look for a different league. 

Our competitive leagues are for our most skilled players. Players have sound fundamentals in regards to dribbling, passing, and shooting as well as grasping basic team defense strategies. These leagues feature a higher level of competition than our normal leagues week in and week out.
