Our Club
The club runs three teams, giving players opportunities to compete at different levels. We also run recreational sessions and social activities throughout the year, so students can get involved whether they are experienced players or completely new to volleyball.
Students can get involved through competitive teams, development and recreational volleyball, club socials and other volleyball activities. There are also opportunities to support events and get involved in the organisation and running of the club.
The club works with qualified and experienced volleyball coaches across its teams. Coaching focuses on player development, technical improvement, tactical understanding and preparing teams for competition.

Inclusion, Accessibility and Disability Practices
Â
The Volleyball Club is structured to accommodate players of all skill levels, with a first team for competitive play, a second team focused on skill development, and a development team dedicated to teaching the basics of volleyball. To further promote accessibility, the club offers open sessions every Thursday for beginners and those interested in trying the sport in a relaxed, pressure-free environment. These sessions encourage students from diverse backgrounds to participate and enjoy volleyball.
Â
The club also prioritises accessibility for athletes with disabilities, ensuring that training facilities are wheelchair-friendly and providing volunteer support during training and competitions. These measures allow all members to engage in volleyball safely and comfortably, reinforcing the club’s commitment to inclusivity.
