Javin Noel has been a dedicated contributor to the development of volleyball in Grenada, serving the sport in various capacities as a player, coach, administrator, and club leader.
He made his national debut at the age of 15, representing Grenada as part of the first team to place second at the ECVA Under-19 Championship, a milestone achievement for the country.

At the club level, he serves as president of one of the island’s leading volleyball clubs, which consistently competes in national championships and contributes to the development of athletes for the national programme.
Beyond the court, Noel is actively involved in volleyball administration. He currently serves as President of the Grenada Volleyball Association (GVA) and is recognized as the youngest president within the Eastern Caribbean Volleyball Association (ECVA). In this role, he has been involved in organizing competitions, supporting coaching and officiating development, and strengthening administrative structures aimed at the sustainable growth of the sport.
