How Does the DVL Work?

Highlights:

  • Ladder-based divisional system

  • Season based tournaments resulting in Invitational Finales

  • Mission to grow NE Florida as a premiere volleyball scene

The Duval Volleyball League (DVL) is a competitive, community-driven league for adults of all skill levels, who share a passion for the game and a drive to improve. Whether you’re new to the sport or a seasoned player, what matters most here is your commitment to growth, excellence, and playing with purpose.

Each season is built around a series of qualifying tournaments that lead to an end-of-season Invitational for top-performing teams. Teams have the opportunity to move between divisions based on performance, creating balanced competition and a clear path for advancement.

Our goal is to showcase local talent, build a connected and motivated volleyball community, and develop NE Florida into a premiere scene for volleyball.
