2025-2026 Volleyball Calendar Updates

*The 1A Regional Finals and State Semifinals will be played at predetermined sites.

Key calendar changes:

1. The Volleyball First Day of Practice will be moved to Friday, August 1^st.
   • This will allow coaches much needed additional time for tryouts and preparation for the season.
2. ​District Certification will be set for Tuesday, October 28^th. 
   • This change will benefit volleyball programs by:
     • Alleviating some concerns regarding facility availability for playoffs.
       • Decreases the overlap with basketball
       • Provides for UIL designated sites for State Semifinal games (as well as 1A Regional Final games)
   • Increasing the turnaround time between the state semifinal games and the championship games to help with travel.
   • Providing more of a championship atmosphere for State Semifinal teams by ensuring great facilities and the availability of trophies and medals to be presented to teams not advancing to the championship games.

*It is important to note that this date change will result in the loss of one playing date, however, it will not impact the number of games and/or tournaments allowed for the season.

Action Items for Coaches:

• Review the updated calendar (attached) and share it with your team and staff.
• Adjust your preseason preparations to reflect the new dates.
• Work with other coaches to make adjustments to your District Schedule and submit to your DEC for approval.

Action Items for DEC Members:

• Work with coaches on schedule adjustments needed due to the change in district certification
• Two possible solutions could include:
  • Shifting the entire district schedule back one playing date.
  • Moving the last district game to be the first district game of district play, while leaving the remainder of the schedule as it is currently.
• Approve the revised district schedule.
