Volleyball Centre of Excellence
A record 22 players will travel to Sandbanks, Poole in Dorset next weekend on 5th & 6th July to compete in the British Open Junior Beach Volleyball Championships.
In glorious sunshine 225 young competitors from all over London and Surrey schools came to Grey Court School (Richmond) last Thursday and contributed to the success of the 3rd Richmond Volleyball JuVo for Schools Tournament.
2014 RVB Beach Volleyball season starts this coming weekend 6th, 7th and 8th June offering weekly weekend beach volleyball events & tournaments for all held at Barn Elms Sports Centre, 7 Queen Elizabeth Walk, Barnes SW13 0DG.
Please note space is limited so if you are keen to participate, the easiest way to enter the tournaments is to get your own partner and send an email to confirm you are coming. The tournaments are open to juniors and adults (beginners/intermediate and advanced levels).
Players will be ranked after each weekly event. So the more tournaments you participate in, the more points you and your partner/team racks up, the better chance you have to win the league.
Congratulations to all RVB Junior players, coaches and parents who took part, cheered and supported the teams in the London Youth Games volleyball event last weekend and achieved some fantastic results.

Through May, a selection of 25 RVB national junior players from various age groups joined forces with players from colleges and schools to prepare for the battle against some formidable opposition in the qualifying rounds.
