ERIC ENS

Eric Ens, long-time resident of Richmond, BC, founded the Air Attack Volleyball Club in 1989 with one team and the vision of building a volleyball community that prioritized youth development and city-wide promotion of the sport. Eric was a founding organizer of the Junior Girls (Grade 10) Volleyball Provincial Championships, and subsequently worked to ensure the event would be hosted in communities around the province. His 28 year legacy was evidenced in 2011 when Richmond schools sent a record five volleyball teams to the High School Provincial Championships, and by the fact that Air Attack is now one of the largest volleyball clubs in BC, with 20 club teams, a house league, and a mini volleyball program for 400 male and female athletes.
