Written By Volleyball England Foundation

Over the last year the Volleyball England Foundation has been working hard to establish itself. Foundation chair Simone Turner tells us that “ During the 2019 -20 period the Board of the Foundation have been working hard to raise its profile, develop our infrastructure, including our website and social media platforms and secure additional funding. It’s now time to use that funding to support the Volleyball family. This first round of funding is to support existing volleyball clubs that want to establish a sitting volleyball team as part of their club.”

Simone Turner has announced that: “As we come out of lockdown we will be looking to work with a number of clubs, who are keen to add sitting volleyball to the menu of activities offered in their club.”

The Foundation will be offering a maximum of £1000 per club, through this scheme, which will be used for equipment and training. Steve Matthews, Trustee at Volleyball England Foundation, has suggested, that a successful applicant will receive, some or all of the following:,

Posts and net for sitting volleyball
