AVJC Tribunal Media Release

VV wish to inform the entire Victorian Volleyball community of a very unfortunate yet serious incident that occurred at the end of the recent AVJC in Perth on Saturday 10 July 2010. Six members of the U19 Women’s Blue team choose, against the terms of their pre signed athlete agreement, to consume alcohol during their final dinner prior to their Melbourne return flight.

This behavior is totally unacceptable to VV and is in direct breach of both State Government State Sporting Association Funding guidelines in relation to Drugs and Alcohol as well as Federal laws pertaining to the consumption of Alcohol by minors in a public space.
