The National Volleyball Association is now bigger than ever before, moving into the upcoming 2022 season, bringing you: more games, larger events, new teams, new league structure, and even greater volleyball action! During the off-season, the American and National Conferences have each split into two divisions. You will now see a Coastal and Central division within each conference. In addition, each conference has inducted a new franchise, bringing the league to a total of 12 teams, which has opened the door to a full regular-season schedule. From April to July, fans will be able to watch 60 matches with teams grinding their way through the rankings to solidify a spot in the 2022 NVA Championships! Here is the release for this year’s NVA Regular Season Event Schedule without further ado.
2022 NVA Regular Season Schedule
Event 1: April 8th – 10th

Event 3: May 28th – 30th

Each event will feature twelve matches over three days with 4 games a day. Each team competes in two matches per event weekend, totaling ten matches throughout the season.
