A new format will see both Bobcat volleyball teams play a 20-match conference schedule, starting on the road the final weekend of October against a familiar opponent in the Trinity Western Spartans.

The schedule will see 10 home matches and 10 on the road with the home-opener slated for November 8 against the Saskatchewan Huskies.
The final home games will be Feb. 8 against Winnipeg before closing the conference season on the road a week later against the TRU WolfPack.
