Juniors
Junior players (from U11 to U18) will always receive a warm welcome from the junior section at Richmond Volleyball
offering various pathways to develop from schools to community to elite. To support this, we also welcome the support from the players' families, which is an integral element in the development of any good Youth Section.
Richmond Volleyball is recognised as one of London's prominent clubs for youth development and junior players will learn new skills such as co-ordination, control, teamwork, self-confidence, and not to mention good health, friends, new experiences and fun.
Such is the popularity of our junior boys and girls teams, we are able to compete in many local cluster competitions, regional and national junior competitions at every level (i.e. u14's u15’s, u16’s and u18’s). If you have a son or daughter that is interested in playing volleyball, please send us an email to contact@richmondvolleyball.co.uk
. We can accommodate most ages and skill levels.
We also actively support primary and secondary schools volleyball programmes such as borough festivals and borough finals to further strengthen our school links. Our primary school coaching programme is a more structured schools delivery but is
centred on the provision of curriculum coaching as well as after schools clubs.
For secondary schools our community coaches deliver a 4 week block of coaching followed up with a festival with the aim of increasing participating and awareness of the sport and providing a pathway into the sport. We also run school borough finals and inter-borough partnership finals to further develop the schools volleyball programme. All of the primary and secondary children who participate in the schools volleyball programme are subsequently invited to watch for free the Senior Richmond teams in their
National League Volleyball matches. and see their local heroes in action
Our young members are also encouraged to take an active role within their club, and are offered opportunities to take refereeing and coaches courses. Our most talented players are supported with a pathway to help them attain the highest level of play.
Richmond Volleyball is a
Clubmark Accredited Club
which means we take seriously the safety of all young people under the age of u18.
All coaches, managers, volunteers and administrators within this Section are CRB cleared.
We also require parents/guardians to complete our
Parent Consent / Medical Information Form and will need to have
read and agree to all Richmond Volleyball
Policies and Procedures.
