The Issue

WE ARE ASKING THE TENNESSEE SECONDARY SCHOOL ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION TO OFFICIALLY DESIGNATE BOYS HIGH SCHOOL VOLLEYBALL AS AN EMERGING SPORT!

We LOVE Volleyball!  Volleyball is the second most played sport in the world. Volleyball helps young people develop teamwork and communication and it fosters confidence and self-esteem. Playing High School Volleyball helps students stay engaged in school, and is positively correlated with academic success and short-term and long-term health benefits.

We believe the TSSAA should ultimately fully sanction Boys High School Volleyball, in the same way it sanctions Girls High School Volleyball, Boys and Girls High School Basketball, Soccer, Tennis and other sports.

Please support TENNESSEE BOYS in their desire to be recognized as a legitimate varsity sport in the state of TENNESSEE, to receive the same validation and credibility for their talents, skills, dedication, and efforts that other high school male athletes receive.

Let's ADD BOYS HIGH SCHOOL VOLLEYBALL as an EMERGING SPORT in Tennessee in 2026!

==========================================

First Point Volleyball, an arm of the USA Volleyball Foundation, is dedicated to growing boys' and men's volleyball.  One of our goals is getting boys high school volleyball sanctioned in all 50 states. https://firstpointvolleyball.com
