As members of our association read and listen to reports, this theme will come across in a variety of ways. First, we have had a solid board of directors who genuinely care about the sport of volleyball in Manitoba, and bring a diverse set of experience and training to the leadership and work of VM. Second, after a few years of staff transition, VM is in an excellent position, with an experienced, knowledgeable and committed staff team who carry the daunting responsibility of leading, managing and/or supporting all the activities presented in this report. Third, beyond our board and staff, the broader VM community continues to provide a host of coaches, officials, coordinators, parents and volunteers that provide players the opportunity to play and grow the sport of volleyball in Manitoba in a variety of settings (indoor and beach) and levels (ranging from 12U/13U sport initiation to Provincial and National Team participation). And lastly, based on the extended efforts of a variety of stakeholders, we have a real and practical 4-year Strategic Plan that VM has just be begun to execute against. Given the aforementioned elements, VM collectively delivered a solid year of results. These include: Financial and operating results that continue to provide a foothold for VM; A comprehensive year of programming ranging from junior/senior high school, age-lass/club, provincial teams, multi-sport events, adult leagues – both on hard-court and sand – all of which are described throughout this Annual Report; After a number of years of not hosting, Manitoba again prepared to host a Volleyball Canada event (14U Western Nationals); and Citing our mission statement, there was growth and excellence in a variety of ways – ranging from outstanding results at national events, to seeing dramatic improvement at grassroots levels. With this solid foundation, VM looks forward to the coming year(s). Following the multi-year Strategic Plan, there are countless ways to improve and grow volleyball programming in our province. Our task and challenge will be to more formally engage a cross-section of stakeholders to grow our pool of players, coaches, officials and facilities – through a mix of both formal committee work, and informally supporting the work of schools, clubs, adult-leagues, and other volunteers who do the front-line work of organizing teams and running events. In closing, this year (and recent years) of solidifying was due in part to the work and effort of two notable leaders; Michael Stephens (President) and Brenda Westwood (Vice President) – both of whom are concluding their multiple-terms of service on the board this year. We thank them both for their time, effort, and commitment – as they personified our collective vision of: Growing Community. Inspiring Excellence. Leading by Serving. 6 2015/2016 Annual Report 2016 Volleyball Manitoba Board of Directors [Each section listed in alphabetical order.] A.

The plan considered feedback and information that was gathered through a consultative process that involved engagement with our members and stakeholders from all levels of our sport. This process gave VM a great opportunity for selfreflection and assessment, and we believe the plan offers us a road map to where we hope to be five years down the road. This plan will hopefully be achieved as we aspire to strengthen and improve how volleyball is delivered and perceived in Manitoba. Our province has a passion for our sport, boasting a rich history of volleyball success at the local, national and international levels that we want to see continue into the future. A summary of the plan includes the following mission, vision and values, as well as strategic priorities. As you read through this Annual Report, you will see that we’ve incorporated an update and link back to the Strategic Plan where it was relevant.

These events in part replace the ‘Volleyjam’ event from past years and will be also be used to support and enforce the provincial ranking process. Moving Forward: The plan for 2017 will be to organize two events at each of the 13U-16U age categories, and we will look into events for the 17U & 18U categories this season as well. 2016 Provincial Championships The 2016 Volleyball Manitoba Provincial Championships were held over three weekends in April & May with events being held in Winnipeg, Brandon, Selkirk & Steinbach. In total, 13 different championships were organized involving 186 teams. This is an increase of fourteen teams from 2015, mainly due to increased numbers in the 14U category. Also, numbers once again warranted a Tier 2 provincial championship to be held in the Girls 14U category. Expanding the tier 2 category for growth and meaningful competition reasons is a focus for VM as we move forward in the coming years. 2016 Championship events involved the following events and locations: Apr 23/24 13U Girls – MBCI, Winnipeg 13U Boys – Glenlawn, Winnipeg (Sat Apr 23 only) 17U Girls - Clearspring Middle School, Steinbach 18U Girls – SRSS, Steinbach April 30 / May 1 14U Girls – MBCI, DMCI & Tec Voc, Winnipeg 14U Girls Tier 2 – Shamrock School, Winnipeg 14U Boys – Maples Collegiate, Winnipeg 17U Boys – Red River College, Winnipeg 18U Boys – Red River College, Winnipeg May 7/8 15U Girls – Brandon University & Crocus Plains, Brandon 15U Boys – Lord Selkirk Comprehensive & East Selkirk School, Selkirk 16U Girls – Shamrock School, Windsor Park Collegiate, Victor Mager School, Winnipeg 16U Boys – Tec Voc, Winnipeg The final placing’s of all teams for each event can be found in Appendix A. Moving forward: We will continue attempts to minimize the number of venues, or use clustered facilities, as much as possible, while also addressing appropriate serving and free space, along with the spectator experience. 2016 Volleyball Canada National Championships Volleyball Manitoba would like to congratulate all the Manitoba teams who competed in this year’s 2016 Volleyball Canada Championships that were held over three weekends in May. In total, 135 teams from Manitoba competed in this year’s championships, our most ever and a very strong representation from our province overall. 10 2015/2016 Annual Report 14U West Championship 15U East Championship 15U West Championship 16U West Championship 17U Championship 18U Championship May 13-15 May 6-8 May May May 6-8 May 13-15 May 6-8 May 13-15 Winnipeg Waterloo Regina Calgary Edmonton Saskatoon Edmonton Saskatoon 30 Girls, 18 Boys Teams 1 Girls Team 23 Girls Teams, 10 Boys Teams 14 Girls Teams, 11 Boys Teams 9 Girls Teams 5 Boys Teams 11 Girls Teams 4 Boys Teams A summary of all the Manitoba medal winning teams and all-stars from all the championship events can be found in Appendix B. Volleyball Manitoba hosted a national championship event this past May for the first time since the open concept originated many years ago. The 14U Western Championship was held in Winnipeg from May 13-15, with eighty eight teams competing on 11 courts at the RBC Convention Centre Winnipeg. With the support of a dedicated and hard-working organizing committee, the event was deemed a great success from both an organizational and participant perspective. Moving forward: We look forward to next summer when the bidding for the 2019 & 2020 National Championships will be opened up, as we will once again pursue one of the national championship events to be hosted in our province. 2016 Provincial Team NTCC (National Team Challenge Cup) Programs Six teams were once again organized this summer, with two 16U and one 18U team per gender. These teams were selected at the end of May / early June, began some on-court sessions in June, with the formal training period running from July 413. The teams then competed in the National Team Challenge Cup (NTCC) from July 13-17 in Kingston, ON (boys) and Richmond, BC (girls). The 16U girls and 18U boys fielded full rosters while the 16U boys and 18U girls fielded teams of less than 12 players. In general, the 16U girls participation remains strong and the ID camps were well attended. The 16U boys participation was low in Winnipeg, but the interest of a very strong group of players from Brandon resulted in one of the team’s training in Brandon in preparation for the NTCC. Without this group of players from the Brandon area we would have only fielded one 16U boys team. The 18U girls participation was also less than hoped, despite the fact this team will compete at the Canada Games next summer. Players were directly contacted and asked to participate and a number of the top players declined. We will be addressing this starting in September. The 18U boys participation was positive with most of the top players involved, although the selection camp numbers were not large. The team performed well at NTCC’s and should be a medal contender in 2017. Following the NTCC championships top athletes were identified and selected to represent Canada as part of the Youth and Select National Team programs. Congratulations to Talia Mcmurchy (Winnipeg) who was selected to the Girls Youth National Development team. See Appendix C for complete rosters of players and coaches of all teams that represented Manitoba at the NTCC competitions. Moving forward: Volleyball Canada has asked each of the Provinces to explore the feasibility of running a year round Provincial Team program with training occurring in the fall and winter leading to participation in summer Provincial Team programs and NTCC. There is discussion of the potential that these teams could compete against each other during the fall and winter months as part of a national league. In line with this concept, we are planning a fall and winter training program as part of the 2017 Canada Games and Provincial Team performance plans. 2016 Annual General Meeting of Members 11 Canada Games 2017 Teams Volleyball Manitoba announced in March the Head Coaches that will lead our indoor and beach volleyball teams for the 2017 Canada Games that will be held in Winnipeg next summer.

Medal results of the Beach Volleyball Provincial Championships can be found in Appendix D. 2016 Beach Volleyball National Championships Volleyball Canada held its Canadian Youth Beach Volleyball Championship at Ashbridges Bay Beach in Toronto August 1921, with 150+ teams overall competing including 8 from Manitoba in the 22U Male, 18U Female, 16U Female, 15U Female & 14U Female divisions.

Registration numbers once again dropped this year (119 beach 2’s teams in 2015, down from 145 in 2015) and we will continue to look at ways to improve the playing conditions and increase the overall participation experience. A separate league was also once organized this past season by Beach 4 Life out of Maple Grove Rugby Park, affiliating itself with Volleyball Manitoba by requiring all participants to be VM members. Volleyball Manitoba also supported or coordinated tournaments throughout the season, including support for the Stefan Savoie Memorial Tournament in July at Melrose Community Centre that raised funds for the memorial scholarship program. Sargent Park Beach Volleyball Centre In August of this past summer, the Sargent Park Beach Volleyball Centre officially opened. Funded by the Canada Games 2017 Host Society along with the City of Winnipeg, this facility will be the official beach volleyball venue for the 2017 Games. Beach Volleyball is scheduled for the first week of the Canada Games, from July 29 – August 4, 2017. During the Games, two competition courts and four training courts will be set-up for the competition. Following the Games, the space will accommodate 10 permanent top level courts that Volleyball Manitoba will be able to utilize for beach volleyball training and competitions, helping to develop the sport for years to come. 2016 Power Smart Manitoba Games - Steinbach The Power Smart Manitoba Games is the largest on-going multi-sport event in the province. Like the Olympics they take place every two years alternating between summer and winter. The program is administered by Sport Manitoba and implemented by the selected host society with each Provincial Sport Organization (PSO) leading their sport specific planning and implementation. Volleyball was once again a part of the Manitoba Games in the summer of 2016, with the category being 14U Boys & Girls Indoor (born in 2002 or later). The 2016 Power Smart Manitoba Games involved 8 teams for each gender including 2 from Winnipeg, and one team each from Eastman, Central, Westman, Parkland, Interlake and Norman regions.

Junior High Challenge (Girls – 12 teams) Sturgeon Heights, Winnipeg Winner: Lansdowne Junior High Challenge (Boys – 8 teams) Ecole Leila North, Winnipeg Winner: Sargent Park Grade 9 Open (Girls – 12 teams) River East Collegiate, Winnipeg Winner: River East Grade 4-7 Development Program A very successful 6 week spring session was offered on Monday evenings with over 40 participants at Christ the King School in Winnipeg. The majority were playing volleyball for the first time, a few grade 7 players had played during the school season. There were no club players involved. The format was the Volleyball Canada recommended 4 on 4 model using the smaller badminton courts and nets. The program fit well into the downtime between the conclusion of winter ice sports and the beginning of soccer season (April/May). Moving forward: This coming season we will be looking at offering this program for two sessions (Fall & Winter/Spring) and possibly adding a second location. Bilateral Program – Regional Development Volleyball Manitoba receives funding support from the Sport Manitoba Bilateral Program to provide development opportunities to persons from under-represented and/or marginalized populations throughout the province to actively participate in sport. This past year, a series of camps and clinics were held on The Pas and Flin Flon for athletes from 6 northern communities between the ages 14-18, as well as coaches / teachers involved in delivering volleyball in the region. An athlete and referee clinic was also held in Norway House the end of October. Adult Senior Volleyball Several volleyball leagues exist throughout the province that provide playing opportunities for adults once they are done with age class or post-secondary levels of our sport. This is important as we strive to promote active for life involvement in volleyball. With only the Winnipeg Men’s Volleyball League (WMVL) remaining as indoor adult members of Volleyball Manitoba, efforts continue to build or rebuild relationships with other leagues, such as the Winnipeg Women’s and Winnipeg Coed leagues. We also need to continue identifying the benefits and services that our adult members may desire in order for them to consider affiliating themselves as members of our association once again. 14 2015/2016 Annual Report 2016 Wezer Bridle Cup In an effort to provide our adult members with a unique competition opportunity, VM along with the WMVL organized an adult men’s tournament in memory of Wezer Bridle, a founding builder of volleyball in Manitoba. The event was held on April 16, 2016, at Calvin Christian High School in Transcona, with 9 teams competing in the inaugural tournament. Moving Forward: Volleyball Manitoba will continue to work with the WMVL to organize and grow the event annually, providing a fun yet competitive opportunity outside of the weekly league play for our adult participants. The event is also an opportunity to celebrate Wezer Bridle’s life and recognize his life-long contributions to volleyball. Funds raised from this tournament will help establish a Wezer Bridle Volleyball Support Fund that will provide assistance towards volleyball participation fees to young athletes with financial barriers. Super-Spike 2016 th th MTS Super-Spike took place on July 15 and 16 at Maple Grove Rugby Park with 470 teams taking part and over 7,000 in attendance this year. The event was able to raise $100,000 in support of the National Women’s Volleyball Team. MTS Super-Spike combines Western Canada’s largest outdoor/beach volleyball tournament with a weekend-long concert series, all set in a festival atmosphere. Over 950 games of volleyball took place over the two day event, with ten different bands & various DJ’s performing at what has become one of Manitoba’s premiere summertime festivals. 2016 marked the fifteenth edition of MTS Super-Spike, and with this year’s $100,000 total, the event has now surpassed the one million dollar mark in total revenues raised with $1,040,000. These revenues have helped fund and support the Winnipeg-based National Women’s Volleyball Team for over a decade. Although the National Women’s Volleyball Team will be relocating to Richmond B.C. at the end of the year, Super-Spike will continue to stay in Winnipeg. The funding model however, will evolve to now support Volleyball Manitoba along with two additional local charities in need. Volleyball Manitoba will become a staple beneficiary while charities will rotate each year. TECHNICAL LEADERSHIP Coaching Clinics & Development The Development (former level 1) and Advanced Development (former level 2) coach levels have now been approved by the Coaching Association of Canada (CAC) and will be fully implemented in 2017. These levels remain the responsibility of the Provincial Associations. The Performance coach level (former level 3) has shifted to become the responsibility of Volleyball Canada. Candidates are nominated or can apply to attend the 3 day performance coach workshop currently offered at either the male or female NTCC’s or at the National Team training centers in Gatineau or Richmond. Those coaches who have started but not finished a level using the old context will need to finish it in 2016 or it will no longer be valid. Coaches who are certified will have their levels transfer over to the new context. How it will work and if anything additional will be required has yet to be determined by VC and CAC. Continuing education credits will now be required by all levels. Previously only the development coach level had started the 5 year cycle. VC has finalized the process for training LF’s and Evaluators and Provinces will begin implementation in late 2016. Volleyball Manitoba was also involved in the delivery of the annual Great Plains Coaching Clinic last September. The clinic took place on Friday, September 19, 2015, 2016 Annual General Meeting of Members 15 at the Investors Group Athletic Centre, in partnership with the University of Manitoba, Sport Manitoba & Coaching Manitoba. This clinic was designed for all coaches as they prepared for their school or club seasons. Volleyball Manitoba was also proud to support the annual BU Volleyball Coaches Summit that took place on Thursday, September 17, 2015. Referee Development Report Submitted by Azad Hosein, Regional Officials Chairperson (ROC) My first year as ROC gave me more of an appreciation for the contribution Barry Miller selflessly gave to Volleyball. His groundwork made it an easy transition for me. In September 2015, our retention rate was 96% from the past season, with 12 new Level I referees. Bohdan Ilkiw did an exceptional job in coordinating clinics with VM and accommodating all requests for conducting clinics. We are currently exploring the idea of webcasting a Level I Clinic to reach more individuals in the Province. This would eliminate a lot of travel costs, and clinician’s time. It would also be an avenue for coaches and players to learn more about the rules of the game. More leagues are using MVOA Referees, with Ed Toews doing a great job in scheduling referees to the various leagues and rotating the referee pool. During September, October, and November, we average 520 matches a week. Providing leadership at the national level, Ed Toews and Peter Henry attended the CIS Championships as Referee Supervisors, with Taras Ilkiw and myself attending as Referees. Moving forward: The MVOA has structured a Referee’s Academy with the aim of developing a stronger referee pool for high level matches. Recruitment, retention and development will continue to be focuses.

Hall of Fame Committee Report 2016 Submitted by Heather Bradshaw & Linda Clark, Committee Co-Chairs th Volleyball Manitoba's Awards & Hall of Fame Banquet was held on Sunday, June 12 , 2016 at the Canad Inns Polo Park. This past year three athletes were inducted into the Volleyball Manitoba Hall of Fame: Keith Sanheim, Steve Welch & Claire Lloyd. One builder was inducted: Lloyd Voth, and one team: Selkirk Royals Girls 1976-1979. The committee consisted of Dennis Nord, Mike Burchuk, Brenda Westwood, Linda Clark, Heather Bradshaw and staff liaison John Blacher. A very special thank you to John Blacher (Executive Director), Anthony Roberts (Program Director), Chris Chong (Special Events), Scott Koskie (Provincial High Performance Coach) and Alyssa Kidd for their excellent work in organizing this annual event. Also, thanks to Michelle Sawatzky, our MC, photographer Rusty Barton, awards committee chair Andrei Halkewycz, Home Run Sports, Volleyball Manitoba, Volleyball Canada, Coaching Manitoba, Sport Manitoba and to the Canad Inns for hosting. Moving forward: The following are recommendations as we move forward: - Continue using 2 separate committees. The Annual Awards needs more volunteers. At the Age Class Meeting in 2017 have coaches sign up for the Major Awards Committee. - Continue recognizing other volleyball achievements: University, National Teams and Officials etc. - Continue sending out a press release, pre and post banquet to encourage media coverage. - Continue using the same venue: Canad Inns Polo Park - Continue having inductees aware that other awards are being presented at the banquet, not just the Hall of Fame. ie. a 5-7 min.”thank you” per award. If a team is being inducted, have only one person speak or share the 7 minutes. - Explore the funding for a ‘Physical’ presence of the Volleyball Manitoba Hall of Fame 2015 Graduating All-Star Banquet & Matches Volleyball Manitoba recognizes the many hours of hard work and dedication that athletes and coaches commit to their team throughout the high school volleyball season and the purpose of the Graduating All-Star Banquet & Games, organized by Volleyball Manitoba, is to honour those individuals whose contributions have been exceptional over the previous high school season. 2016 Annual General Meeting of Members 17 The 2015 Graduating All-Star Banquet was held the morning of Saturday, December 5 at the Celebrations Dinner Theatre at Canad Inns Fort Garry, and the matches followed at St. Paul’s High School. The full list of all athletes and award winners can be found in Appendix E. International Results & Representation Volleyball Manitoba would like to recognize and congratulate the following individuals for their accomplishments on the international stage during the 201516 season, including both athletes and coaches.

This disappointing news came following a strong bid submission that included the Sport Manitoba Sport for Life fieldhouse as the team’s training centre, and tremendous commitment from many partners including Sport Manitoba, the Province of Manitoba, the Canadian Sport Centre Manitoba, and the City of Winnipeg. Winnipeg and Manitoba have benefited from the national teams calling Manitoba home by hosting numerous international competitions over the years including NORCECA Continental Championships, Olympic and World Qualification tournaments, World League events, Canada Cups and numerous exhibition series. Matches have been played over the years not only in Winnipeg, but also in Brandon, Dauphin and Winkler. Volleyball Manitoba would like to extend a huge thank you to all the people in the community that have supported the national team programs in many ways over the years. Whether it was the host committee that worked to bring and keep the teams in our province, the committees that helped host international events and matches, and those that helped raise funds towards team training and competitions through events such as Super-Spike and the annual auction – they all made significant contributions that have been invaluable to the program. Moving forward: Volleyball Manitoba will continue to work on hosting events in the future at the national and international levels, and we look forward to those opportunities. 18 2015/2016 Annual Report FINANCIAL REPORT & STATEMENTS Volleyball Manitoba (VM) Finance Committee Report – September, 2016 Submitted by John Olfert, Board Treasurer & Chair Finance Committee Financial results and position for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2016 are presented in the audited financial statements included in this Annual Report. As reflected in the financial statements and this brief report, results are consistent with the annual approved budget, and represent the work and activity of VM for fiscal 2016 (April 1, 2015 to March 31, 2016). In summary; 1. Financial Position. As reflected on the Statement of Financial Position, given an operating surplus of $12,524 during fiscal 2016, Unrestricted Net Assets grew from $22,474 to $34,998. While not having a specific target or mandate to accumulate a reserve, VM’s Board of Directors is comfortable with this level of excess cash to manage seasonal and year-to-year programming and cashflow fluctuations experienced by VM. 2. Fiscal 2016 Operating Results. The Statement of Operations tells the story and reflects a number of hilites for VM’s fiscal 2016 activity. These include: Receipts from Sport Manitoba Grants and Provincial Teams Expense were both higher in fiscal 2016, due to Western Canada Summer Games; Other Grants/Funders and offsetting Administration expense, reflect the addition of an additional shared employee, in partnership with Volleyball Canada (VC); Membership levels and fees remained steady; Increases in Athlete Program fees and offsetting Athlete Development Programs are the result of team selection and initial training for 2016 Manitoba Games (14U boys and girls volleyball); Growth in Provincial Championships (both number of teams and fees per team) was offset by reduced school (grade 8 and 9 events), beach programming, and other tournament play organized by Volleyball Manitoba; and Fiscal 2016 saw a raffle occur (Sponsorship/Fundraising), and the sale of an unused taraflex volleyball floor (included in Other revenue). 3. Looking Forward to Fiscal 2017. During the spring of 2016, VM staff prepared, and the Board of Directors reviewed and approved the fiscal 2017 Operating Budget. The budget quantifies a number of realities and initiatives, which include the following note descriptions (referenced in the budget summary): a) Sport Manitoba Grants declined due to both a modest reduction in base-funding and a partial year adjustment associated with the Women’s National Team Program leaving Winnipeg during the fiscal year. b) Additional grant (and offsetting expense) for part-time VM staffing – done in partnership with VC. c) Increased revenue and expense for Manitoba Games and new 12U Learn To Train programming. d) Plans for Volleyball Manitoba operated premier tournaments (in addition to Provincial Championships) in February & March 2017. e) Hosting 14U boys and girls Western Canadian Championships. f) Proceeds from a raffle and sale of taraflex volleyball flooring, will not recur in fiscal 2017. 2016 Annual General Meeting of Members 19 F2017 Budget Revenue Sport MB Grants Other Grants Membership Fees Athlete Programs/League fees VM Tournaments VC Tournaments Coaches & Officials Development Recognition/Special Events Sponsorship/Fundraising Other Total revenues Expenditures Athlete Programs VM Tournaments VC Tournaments Coaching/Officials/Membership Dev.

Appreciation. The staff of VM should be commended for operating within budgeted parameters, and balancing the day-to-day business of the association with opportunities and challenges occurred during the year. This effort, coupled with the support of Sport Manitoba’s finance team, who provide accounting/bookkeeping services for VM, has allowed the Board to receive timely and accurate financial information. 5. Recommendations to Membership at the 2016 Annual General Meeting. It is recommended that: The VM 2016 Financial statements be accepted as presented in the VM 2016 Annual Report; and Gislason Targownik Peters be appointed auditors for fiscal 2017. 20 2015/2016 Annual Report MANITOBA VOLLEYBALL ASSOCIATION INC. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2016 TABLE OF CONTENTS Page Auditor's Report 1 Statement of Financial Position 2 Statement of Operations 3 Statement of Changes in Net Assets 4 Statement of Cash Flow 5 Notes to Financial Statements 6 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT To the members of Manitoba Volleyball Association Inc., We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Manitoba Volleyball Association Inc., which comprise the statement of financial position as at March 31, 2016, and the statements of operations, changes in net assets and cash flow for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. Management’s responsibility for the financial statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor's responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors' judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Manitoba Volleyball Association Inc. as at March 31, 2016, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations.

Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended March 31, 2016 1. PURPOSE OF THE ORGANIZATION The Manitoba Volleyball Association Inc. is a non-profit organization and is exempt from income tax in accordance with Section 149 of the Canadian Income Tax Act. The purpose of the association is to provide quality services and programs that will assist in the promotion, development, and growth of volleyball in Manitoba 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of presentation The financial statements of the organization have been prepared in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations. Financial instruments Financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Subsequent measurement of financial assets and liabilities are at amortized cost unless otherwise noted. Financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, deferred revenue and long-term debt. It is management's opinion that the organization is not exposed to significant credit, currency, interest rate, liquidity or market risks arising from these financial instruments, unless otherwise noted. Capital assets Capital assets are recorded at cost and are being amortized on the straight line basis at the following rates based on estimated useful life, except in the year of acquisition, when onehalf of the rate is used: Computer hardware 2 years The organization reviews capital assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Contributed capital assets are recorded at fair value at the date of contribution. Contributed services A substantial number of volunteers contribute a significant amount of their time each year. Due to the difficulty of determining the fair market value, contributed services are not recognized in the financial statements. 6 MANITOBA VOLLEYBALL ASSOCIATION INC. Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended March 31, 2016 Revenue recognition The organization follows the deferral method of accounting for Sport Manitoba contributions. Unrestricted contributions are recognized as revenue in the year received or receivable if the amount to be received can be reasonably estimated and collection is reasonably assured. Externally restricted contributions are recognized as revenue in the year in which the related expenses are recognized. The association accounts for other revenues using the accrual basis of accounting. Use of estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with Canadian accounting standards for not-for-profit organizations requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements, as well as reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are subject to measurement uncertainty, and the effect on the financial statements of changes in such estimates in future periods could be significant. 3. BANK INDEBTEDNESS The company has a line of credit available to a maximum of $25,000, repayable on demand with interest at the rate of prime plus 3.00%. Bank indebtedness is secured by general security agreement providing a floating charge on all assets of the association. 4.
