Richmond Volleyball Beach – 10 Year Anniversary & End of Summer Party
We can’t believe it’s been 10 years since the beach courts at Teddington were opened – and what a 10 years it’s been! From humble beginnings of just a few training sessions a week, we have now grown to run 28 summer training sessions a week for all age groups and levels.
On 13th September 2014 current Beach Division Manager Martin Rees together with the late, great Andre Montenegro organised the first ever Saturday open session with a group of just 8 players. The aim was to provide all year round beach volleyball for members and non-members at all levels. 10 years later the sessions have grown into 3 separate sessions with regular attendance often over 60 players every Saturday.
To celebrate this achievement and to say thank you to everyone who participated and contributed to make this happen over the years, we invite you to take part in our end of summer party:
