RVB Juniors – Welcome to our new Indoor Season 2015-2016

A warm welcome back to another year of junior volleyball with RVB. I’m pleased to enclose information for the 2015-16 season.

We start back w/c 7th September with all sessions and age groups.

Please note we have 2 new training sessions this year- winter volleyball for YR3-YR6 and YR7-YR9. These will be mixed sessions.

I would like to wish all the players good luck in their different teams & leagues and to say thank you to all the club coaches, referees and volunteers who support our many matches and community events.

Following up from our conversations with parents, players and community partners I’m pleased to report that we’re to continue growing our junior coaching and playing programmes to further develop junior volleyball.

The objective of this season is to strengthen and develop our community relationship so young people can enjoy and develop their volleyball skills in a supportive environment, we aim to:

• Provide high intensity technical training which will allow young children to progress quickly to compete not only in their school team but also progress to RVB JR teams that compete in the South London Leagues (local/county standard) and into RVB Regional and National League Junior performance teams.
• Continue to build on our club’s junior success. Last year RVB achieved 5 Gold; 5 Silver & 8 Bronze National Medals & 5 players represented England Cadets (3 female & 2 male) in the UK School Games (U17).
• To expand and grow our coaching for kids of primary school age in particular YR3- YR6.
