Championship15 Format
Get ready for a new era of volleyball. CVA’s Championship15 format turns every match into a deciding set—fast, intense, and competitive from the very first point.
Forget the slow warm-up that usually fills the first 20 points of a set to 25. Championship15 cuts straight to the action. Games go to 15, the energy spikes immediately, and athletes have to show up laser-focused from the opening whistle.
This format is also easier on the body. Fewer jumps, fewer swings, fewer dives—more intention, more focus, more competitive clarity. It’s a smarter way to play that keeps athletes healthier while sharpening their skills.
We’ve added small rule tweaks that push athletes to think faster, compete smarter, and elevate their game. These constraints make every rally more meaningful and the whole experience more fun to watch.
