In the Spotlight

Sports Programs for Everyone 

NOVA offers their students more than an education through the basketball, soccer, volleyball and ice hockey sports teams.

The men’s basketball season runs from November to April and includes approximately 30 games. Practices are every Tuesday and Thursday evening for two hours. Last year the men’s team finished third in the VCCS and won 19 games overall.

The women’s basketball, volleyball and soccer teams play seasonally. Practices are twice a week for women’s soccer, three times a week for women’s basketball and two times per week for women’s volleyball. The women basketball team was ranked third last season.   

Women’s volleyball is in its first year at NOVA. There are two types of teams -- competitive and recreational. The competitive women’s team, called the SuperNOVAs, is currently playing in community leagues and hopes to become part of the National Junior College Athletic Association’s (NJCAA) intercollegiate sports league next year.

The recreational women’s volleyball team is for casual players who want to advance their skills. Tryouts were held in the beginning of the fall term, but anyone who’s interested can show up to practice on Monday and Wednesday evenings, and will be worked into the team as their skills and time allow.

All practices and home games for the women’s and men’s teams are held on the Annandale Campus with the exception of ice hockey, which is held at the Mount Vernon Recreation Center in Alexandria.

Show your school spirit by attending the games! To join, visit the NOVA sports team tryout page for more details.
