JSVL Update: New League Names Announced

To help reduce confusion around age groups and eligibility, our Junior Scottish Volleyball League competitions have been renamed:
- Tartan League
- Thistle League
- Heather League

Age Eligibility will be as follows:
Tartan League: Born on or after 1 January 2009
Thistle League: Born on or after 1 January 2011
Heather League: Born on or after 1 January 2013

Additionally, to support player development and participation opportunities, players aged 18 who are still eligible for full-time education may apply for special dispensation to compete in the Tartan League. Please note that these players will not be eligible for the Tartan Talent pathway or U20 national team selection, but will remain eligible for JSVL competition and U22 squad consideration.

The same eligibility rules will apply across all Junior Cup competitions.
