The
Illinois Men’s Volleyball Club was established 25 years ago in 1984 and quickly
became one of the top collegiate men’s club volleyball teams in the
nation. Located at the University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign, it is one of the most popular
registered student organizations. Elections are held
yearly to choose the club's governing body, which
consists of a president, vice president, secretary, and
treasurer. Tryouts are held every year in
mid-September, where nearly 100 UIUC students come out
on average.

The
Illinois Men’s Volleyball Club is a registered student
organization at the
University of Illinois that plays men’s
volleyball.

This team is composed of students from the University of Illinois
and is designated as a club team because the University does not
have a varsity men's volleyball team.
