THE JOY OF SPORTS

Whether you watch it, play it, or bet on it sports is always a joy to be a part of.
It has been around since the beginning of time, and will continue to go on way past our time.
Sports are something that can bring a group of men together to cheer on their favourite football team. It can make you one of the richest persons in the world, it makes you work hard to achieve a goal, but most of all sports build friendships, trust, love and if you’re really good at the sport you’re playing success.

Its funny how watching and playing sports brings the same level of excitement.
A game winning shot or touchdown can send everybody in frenzy, the players that just executed the play to achieve the win is celebrating and the fans that have done nothing but sit down for two hours are screaming and cheering as well. That’s where loves comes in, there are people that will paint their faces, wear no shirts in the -20C weather, and will be the happiest person in the world if their team wins. Sports have that affect on people.

“I hate sports,” some people usually say. Why do you hate sports? “Well, every Sunday all my husband does is watch football” or “my girlfriend is a cheerleader and I don’t like it” or “sports is just stupid, waste of time, those guys are getting overly paid to do a hobby, that’s not a real job.”

My answer, sports is a family thing; there is something for the whole family to partake in at a sports event. Sports can bring a country closer, look at the affect the Olympics had on Canada.

After all of that if you still don’t believe me bring your family down to Victory Sports Academy where there is something for everyone. You and your spouse can play in one of our many volleyball leagues, your kids can be trained the fundaments of basketball and volleyball.

So if you want to build friendship, trust, love and success come to Victory and I can assure you sports will be your life.

Victory's Beefy Intern


Hey everyone,
My name is Nathan Pollice and I’m one of Victory’s newest interns (the best one they will ever have).
I was born and raised in Mississauga, but attended Trent University and obtained an Honours Business Administration degree.

I am 5’9”, 190 lbs and love extreme sports such as badminton, lawn bowling and ping pong. People call me “Beef” (given my height and weight), and I am looking for that special someone who can be my “beefette”. Growing up, I played hockey and soccer, but in those sports I had no luck finding that special woman to complete me.


When I came across the opportunity to be an intern at Victory, I made sure to tell them I was looking for a soul-mate, and they ensured me that I would be able to find that special someone right here, as many female volleyball players match the description that I presented them with.[ 6’1”, athletic, smart (but not smarter than me), , long hair that she whips back and forth (like Willow Smith), but most of all, one that can carry me when I don’t feel like walking ].


All in all, I look forward to meeting everyone, and look forward to finding my special “beefette” (I know you’re out there somewhere).

Newest and best looking intern at Victory Volleyball

Hey everyone, my name is Bernard Cooper and I hail from the beautiful islands of the Bahamas.
I came to this great country of Canada about three years ago to study Journalism-Print. After graduating from the best college in Ontario, Niagara College in Welland, I decided to work for the local paper, where I was a free-lance sports reporter.

That didn’t last too long because everyone these days don’t like to read the newspaper anymore. After I left there, I spent months in the Niagara Region either working in factories or frying chicken for the Cornel at KFC.

During all of that I took some time out to do an online course called Sports Business Management with a school called Sports Management Worldwide, where I got to meet the GM of the NBA’s New Orleans Hornets as well as talked to Leaf’s GM Brian Burke. He assured that the team won’t have a chance to win this year, so Leafs fans I think its time to be converted to Montreal Canadiens fans!! Just kidding he didn’t say that, but you really should be Canadiens fans.


Then one day I stumbled on this beautiful establishment called Victory Volleyball and what excited me the most was a chance to help a growing sports organization grow even more.

With my stunning, pleasing and my loving good looks, as well as my unique dressing styles, my adorable sense of humour, my love for sports and more importantly my dedication to hard work, I Bernard Cooper is pleased to serve you in what ever way I can and I promise you I am one intern you will never, ever forget!!!

I look for forward to meeting and talking with you whether it’s during leagues, tournaments or on kid’s day.
