Volleyball clubs benefit from Sport England 'Return to Play' funding.

Great to see Volleyball Clubs receiving funding through the Sport England ‘Return to Play.’

As well as the funding to support Sitting Volleyball other clubs have also been successful at securing funding.

Well done Wombourne Wessex and Coventry & Warwick Riga Volleyball Club they have all received funding to help cover the costs of cleaning equipment, signage and more playing space to support smaller training groups.

Club Development Officer Sophie Key said: “Thanks to Sport England’s guidance, the process to complete the application was really easy.

Wessex Volleyball Club have received funding to enable them to safety get back to playing volleyball.

The funds will go towards purchasing extra equipment to allow for training in smaller groups, covering the costs for an online booking system that allows for track and trace, and buying disinfectant and hand gels
