It is almost like normal service has been resumed, except no changing ends, shaking hands and now sanitizing balls.
Div 1 is a little odd this season with only 4 teams so all teams will be playing each other home and away twice. Div 2 meanwhile has 9 teams, a few must be due for promotion next season to balance out the numbers.
As you are probably aware, government policy on social distancing and unnecessary travel now precludes club sport.
The SVA have suspended the league until further notice, so all remaining matches will be postponed if not cancelled.
In the interests of members’ safety, and that of the wider community, the committee has decided to suspend training and other physical events for the foreseeable future. We will let you know when it is possible to resume volleyball - hopefully in time for the new season or a few summer tournaments!
New season is getting under way so we are starting again with training on 5th September 2019, normal Chessington venue and timing 20:00 - 22:00.
Fixtures and teams are yet to be finalised but training is open for all to come along, join in have fun and improve.
This season we finished 3rd in the league just missing out on the official SEVA invite, fortunately for us Richmond weren't up for the event and we got an invite after all.
