Boys Volleyball Comes To Minnesota

ST. PAUL, MN (trfnews.i234.me) New rules bring boys volleyball to high schools in Minnesota.

The Minnesota State High School League’s representative assembly has officially voted to offer boys’ high school volleyball to schools with the demand and capacity to offer it. This vote will impact nearly 2,000 student-athletes, who will now have the opportunity to participate in the sport at a sanctioned level. Schools will not be required to offer the sport, and some may not be able to due to lack of demand or Title IX compliance. The amendment passed this year after failing by one vote last year, and boys’ volleyball will move from a club level to a sanctioned sport in the Minnesota State High School League for the 2024-2025 season. This decision represents a significant step forward for gender equity in high school sports in Minnesota, as it provides male athletes with an opportunity to participate in a sport that female athletes have traditionally dominated.
