    This is our new site that will provide information on events and our Summer Beach Volleyball league.

About Us

VSE Canada (Vision Sports & Entertainment) is a Not-For-Profit sports entertainment group of volunteers based in North Bay, Ontario, Canada. We provide a venue beach volleyball at our CANOR Sand Centre. VSE Canada is committed to growing a sustainable sports tourism industry and providing regional athletes a world-class venue to hone their skills.

Growing on the success of the past several years, the team continues to expand its unique and exciting offering.  Our facility had been selected as the only Canadian tour stop for the NORCECA (North America, Central America and Caribbean Volleyball Confederation) beach volleyball tour on the Canada Day long weekend in 2016.  We received one of the highest ratings by the international delegates for hosting the event from amongst all the host countries.

Not resting on our laurels, the team set out to attract new events for the facility culminating with being awarded the Adult Nationals Beach Volleyball Tournament for 2016 and 2017 by Volleyball Canada.  North Bay was selected from a prestigious group of Canadian cities to be the host of this incredible tournament.  Canada's best beach volleyball athletes will descend on the City to battle for national bragging rights.

The peak event was the 2016 RIO Olympics Men's Qualifier - the only such event in the world.  The winning pair gaining a spot in the RIO Olympics representing Canada.

"Volleyball Canada is looking forward to this summer's Adult Beach National Championships.  North Bay is quickly gaining the reputation as a beach volleyball hub and we are consistently impressed with the local organization. Sandra de Graff, Domestic Competitions Director, Volleyball Canada.

North Bay is quickly becoming a favourite community among some of the world's greatest athletes and it is easy to see why. The sport of beach volleyball is thriving in this province and no more so than right here in North Bay. On behalf of Ontario Volleyball, thank you VSE for all you do to maintain and grow the sport."  Jo-Anne Ljubicic, Executive Director, Ontario Volleyball Association.

Amedeo Bernardi, President of VSE states, "we thank the ongoing support of our key sponsors for making this venue and the events a reality.  Without the likes of our legacy supporters such as Canor, Nipissing University, Canadore College, The Boat North Bay, Design Roofing, Arnstein Lawn and Garden we would be unable to showcase North Bay as we do.  FedNor and the Northern Ontario Heritage Fund Corporation have enabled our vision to come to fruition. The City of North Bay Sports Tourism has been a strong supporter in our development."

The Board will continue to peruse large-scale domestic and international events to bring to the City of North Bay. We will also continue to encourage local use with the facility through corporate events or rentals. We are excited about our growing line up and look forward to continued success.
