From the court, for the community

A random name. A lasting community.

Before BDG, there was Black Doggies—a name our group chose almost at random. We joined tournaments under different team names until one championship win gave us a reason to keep this one. Black Doggies had won, and the name stayed.

Eventually, entering tournaments was no longer enough. We wanted to create that experience for others, so we organised our own. As the team grew into a wider organisation, we rebranded as BDG. The name changed; the love of the game stayed.

Belonging. Determination. Growth.

One step at a time

Our journey.

From our first tournament to bringing more of the game to the screen.

  1. The beginning

    A team. A love of the game.

    BDG’s story began with a group of volleyball players and the team that became known as Black Doggies. What started on court became the foundation for everything that followed.

  2. Our first tournament · February

    24 teams. Three days. A new beginning.

    In February, BDG organised its first mixed volleyball tournament. All 24 team places filled in just three days—a response that encouraged us to keep going.

    Four more tournaments followed that year, turning our first event into the start of something much bigger.

    • First mixed tournament
    • 5 tournaments that year
  3. More ways to come together

    Beyond the tournament.

    We organised seven tournaments and four major community events: Merdeka, Halloween, Christmas and LED glow-in-the-dark volleyball. There was more room to compete, celebrate and enjoy the game together.

    The team also travelled to Taiwan to learn from other players and bring fresh perspectives back to our own courts.

    • 7 tournaments
    • 4 major community events
    • Learning in Taiwan
  4. Growing on and off the court

    New connections. A wider world.

    BDG organised nine tournaments alongside other events, and helped companies bring their people together through volleyball. We were grateful for the trust placed in us as our work grew beyond our own community.

    We also travelled to the Philippines for the 2025 FIVB Volleyball Men’s World Championship, taking inspiration from the game at its highest level. Congratulations to Italy, the tournament’s champions.

  5. Bringing the game to more screens

    A bigger stage for volleyball.

    We expanded into quality livestream production, co-organising the 1 Utama volleyball championship and providing its livestream coverage.

    BDG also contributed to livestream coverage at the Shah Alam Invitation Volleyball Championship and SUKMA 2026. Along the way, our YouTube channel passed 600,000 views—another step in sharing the game with more people.

    • 600,000+ channel views

Our next chapter

Local roots. Worldwide ambition.

Our next chapter is a modern, connected volleyball community. We aim to digitise volleyball booking, make sessions easier to discover and join, and help players stay connected to the game and one another.

We will keep exploring, learning and growing—with the same ambition that brought us this far.

Take our love of volleyball to the world.
