Hall of Fame - Team Category

The Lord Selkirk Royals Varsity Girls Volleyball program became a dynasty during this period winning Provincial Championships for 5 consecutive years.  The first three years were under the tutelage of Coach Barry Miller, and the final two under Coach Mike Burchuk.  They lost only a handful of matches over those 5 years, going 41-12 in 1975 and winning over 50 matches in each of the next 4 years, losing no more than 4 matches in any one year, and highlighted by a perfect 58-0 record in the 1978-79 season.

The Lord Selkirk team began their reign by winning the Provincial “B” title in 1975, and also advancing to the semi-finals in the “A” category that year.  There was to be no stopping them over the next 4 years, as they won both the Provincial “B” and Provincial “A” titles in each year.  When they won both in 1976, they became the first team to accomplish this feat.
