Windsor Adult Mixed Volleyball League Championship at St. Clair College

The Windsor Adult Mixed Volleyball League was founded in 1976 at St Angela Catholic School.  It was an opportunity for a group teachers to get together and play some volleyball.  Fast forward 39 years and there are currently 177 teams playing in over 90% of available volleyball courts in the Windsor-Essex region. The league is now known as the Windsor Adult Volleyball League (W.A.V.L.) and is producing its first overall championship, April 12 at the St. Clair College Sportsplex.

The league has 11 tiers of 9 teams each on Wednesday and 9 tiers on Tuesdays night.  The league is using 63 gyms across the region which include, the city’s community centres, every school board and is even using the new Southwest Detention Centre, commonly referred to as the City Jail.  W.A.V.L. runs from October to the first week of April.

“It’s a massive league. Organizing the league is quite the endeavour and we are trying to appeal to over 1200 members. Lippert took over the league in 2015 and has introduced updates such as immediate scoring automation and creating a hotline for league enquiries. Never in the history of the league, have we had the two divisions play each other to have an overall champion. It was kind of a no-brainer for me to introduce the Semeniuk Cup and celebrate the league with this championship and also to pay homage to one of the co-founders.” –  Shawn Lippert, President of the league.

Gary Semeniuk was a co-founder to the Windsor Adult Mixed Volleyball League (W.A.M.V.L.) He passed away on October 3 2015 and joined his best friend and wife, Janice, which whom he shard 20 years of marriage.  Semeniuk was influential as a teacher and principle in the region but was incremental to keeping the league moving forward.

This year’s inaugural game will feature the Gillis Champion (Tuesday) Advantage Plus.  Made up of volleyball fixtures such as Corey Cole (OCAA All Star, St. Clair Saint) Jordan Lynch (St Clair Saint) and Kelly Paolini (OUA All Star, Uwindsor Lancer) playing against the Primeau Champion (Wednesday) Tanks and Spanks with Prodan Brothers, Jake and Josh (Essex Ravens) and Kat Mcfadden (Lajeunesse Royals).

The championship is free to the public and is being played at the St. Clair College Sportsplex on Wednesday April 12.  Game time is 7PM.  For more information you can visit the leagues website at www.windsorvolleyball.com.
