The NTCC is an annual competition involving 18U (women) and 19U (men) provincial teams from across the country. The event has evolved from previous editions with a high performance component incorporated into the schedules, prior to the main competitions. The participating teams have the opportunity to be involved in training sessions with national team coaches, and partake in classroom sessions with national team athletes and sport science experts.
All these additional aspects to the NTCC events have been added to bring the program more in line with the Volleyball Canada Long Term Athlete Development (LTAD) plan.
