TTGVA continues to operate, guided by a group of dedicated Volleyball individuals and their Constitution, to promote and provide social Volleyball for the general public in a  "Fitness, Friends and Fun" atmosphere of this great team sport.

Of course, there still needs to be Rules and Guidelines, but over the past 40 years TTGVA believes it has developed a fair and equitable means of providing our members with well managed and balanced competitions, ensuring everyone is treated respectfully, encouraging a good team sport attitude and providing a friendly and learning environment that encourages members to play at differing levels that best suits their own individual skills and desires.

As a member of our Association or as part of the Committee, you can help promote our ideals and ethos of the Association, further developing it as a leading organisation in its quest to promote the playing of social Volleyball for "Fitness, Friends and Fun".

"TTGVA acknowledges that we meet on the traditional country of the Kaurna people of the Adelaide Plains and we pay respect to Elders past, present and emerging.
We recognise and respect their cultural heritage, beliefs and relationship with the land. We acknowledge that they are of continuing importance to the Kaurna people living today."
