Kimberly originally offered boys volleyball from 1967-1982. Due to a low number of participating schools, the sport was dropped. The WIAA began sponsoring a boys volleyball championship series again in 2000 after an 18-year hiatus. Currently, there are 59 schools in the state who offer the sport which make up 53 teams all in Division 1. Kimberly began offering the sport again in 2002. Since then, the Kimberly boys volleyball program has won 2 FVA Conference Championships ('06 & '07), 13 Regional Championships ('04-'16), and have qualified for 6 Sectional Final appearances ('04-'08, '12). They have also produced 9 All-State players.
