The South London Volleyball League is pleased to present a community-level sitting volleyball program for all.
A fast-paced, competitive sport, sitting volleyball is played by thousands of people around the world. Come and have a go and join the fun!
Held on Monday evenings at
Richmond College
your team will play 2 matches (best of 3 sets) and will play back-to-back games (starting either at 7pm, 8pm, or 9pm).
The matches will be held on 2 courts for 6 teams of 6 players or more.
We are in the process of acquiring a grant from London’s Winter of Sport programme to support this. Acceptance will not be confirmed

Overview
Sitting Volleyball can be played by people with or without a physical disability. Often people mistakenly call it “sit volleyball” or “seated volleyball” instead of its official name – and usually the first thing we explain is “no, you don’t sit in a wheelchair, you sit on the floor!” No special equipment is required. If you can sit and use your hands to move and position yourself on the floor, keep your eye on the ball and perform a range of volleyball skills, get set for a lot of fun!
