NZ ATHLETES OVERSEAS

Kiwi volleyballers have been taking their game around the world for decades, from university scholarships to professional leagues and international competitions.

Volleyball New Zealand is building a record of the New Zealand athletes who have played overseas, past and present. We want to capture where they played, the teams and leagues they were part of, their achievements and the different pathways that have taken Kiwi athletes onto the international stage.

If you have played volleyball overseas, we’d love to add your journey to the story of New Zealand volleyball.
