Richmond VB held London’s 4th Junior Beach Volleyball Championships (Rising Stars) last Sunday at Teddington SC. It was a great success and saw top pairings show off their growing talent and excellent beach skills. The pairs were competing for the top spot in 2 age categories (u14 & 18 boys and girls).
Richmond VB would like to thank everyone for helping to raise £777.70 funds for British Heart Foundation making the Mixed 4’s Beach Summer Slamdown Festival a great success – in particular, to all the teams and to volunteers who helped out in various capacities on the day.
This event was a sell out and broke all fundraising records. We look forward to welcoming back all volleyball participants and seeing new team entries for 2017.
Luis Bello coaches the England Cadet boys to silver with a team including Joaquín Bello (Best Outside Hitter), Javier Bello (Best Setter), Yoan Kuzzmanov and Noah Goalen. Anna Keefe captains England Cadet girls to gold with Mattea Goalen. Martha Bullen (Best Libero) and Katie Keefe finish runners up. Congratulations to all!
Huge CONGRATULATIONS to Richmond Volleyball players Javier and Joaquin Bello who represented England and travelled to Czech Republic last weekend for the 2016 CEV U18 Beach Volleyball European Championship to secure a place in the quarter-finals. The best ever position for England in any CEV event.
