DC Pride Volleyball is an inclusive organization that offers opportunities to play volleyball for the LGBTQ+ community and its allies in the Washington, DC metro area.
We are committed to providing a social and competitive environment for members to meet new people and improve volleyball skills, while maintaining integrity, safety, and good sportsmanship.
DC has a history of fostering both social and competitive volleyball. A “social Tuesday” league was held for over 30 years, and a NAGVA tournament has been held in DC annually for over 20 years. Although these events were initially organized by different groups, the founding of Capital City Volleyball (CCV) in 2011 aligned them together and provided additional playing opportunities.
In 2015, CCV evolved into DCPVL. In the years since, DCPVL has grown to be a staple of the DC volleyball community, providing competitive and social play, as well as skills-building opportunities for beginners and seasoned players alike.


DCPVL is a volunteer-run organization. Board members are elected by league membership. For more information, read our bylaws. If you’re interested in adding your unique talents to the board, get in touch. We’d love to hear from you.
