The Massachusetts Volleyball Coaches Association established its Hall of Fame in the fall of 1999. The inaugural inductees were introduced before the Division I State Championship match at Eastern Nazerene College (Quincy, MA) and new candidates will be inducted every two to three years. A permanent plaque honoring all Hall of Fame inductees is displayed at the Volleyball Hall of Fame in Holyoke, MA.
