Hi, college student currently studying abroad in Japan for the year here! My college is super small and doesn’t have a big volleyball presence but I’m really into volleyball. Unfortunately not good enough to play/join a team, even a small for-fun one (believe me, middle and high school was enough to prove that I’m not cut out for it) but I love watching it. I’m totally down to spend some money to watch a professional VLeague game but most are significantly far out from Tokyo and so I’m thinking I plan a mini trip around going to watch a D1 game in January. In the meanwhile, I want to find some more local options for watching volleyball! Which brings me to my question: how do you find leagues near you? I did some brief internet searching and it seems like the intercollegiate leagues are off-season, but I feel like in the entirety of Tokyo there’s gotta be some kind of league that’s currently operating. Any recommendations or advice greatly appreciated!

Why do you say volleyball games are far out from Tokyo? For example, there is a D1 game on Nov 26 in Yoyogi, Tokyo. And if you extend your interest to D2 and D3, there are one female D2 team and 3 male D3 teams in Tokyo. You can go watch games there.
If we want to get information on volleyball, we can check the [official website of V-league](https://www.vleague.jp/).
