A new season approaches

We’ve had a great summer on the beach courts in St Albans. Those Sunday sessions end next Sunday, but Thursdays will continue until the end of September.

From Sunday 3rd September, we’re back training indoors in readiness for the new season. Everybody is welcome and the first session is free. We haven’t decided on subs yet, but I expect them to increase to £75 twice per season to cover the increase in hall fees, but that covers all training and matches.

Kings Langley Tournament Cancelled

KLVC are cancelling the Kings Langley Volleyball Tournament, which was scheduled for this Saturday 27th May. Despite initial interest from 11 teams, only 5 teams entered - we blame the FA Cup! Please let your players know. Apologies to those players who were interested and we hope to run the tournament in this format some other time, which we'll discuss at the next HVA Committee meeting in June.

Club Champs 2.0

Another great turn out for our second Club Champs of the year, again organised by Richard. With 21 players, we had three teams in timed matches. Many thanks to Karen for scoring and for Carl as our referee. After some fierce games, the team captained by Angelo won the day and took away the coveted 14cm plastic trophy. Duncan S took server of the day and Angelo took passer of the day through votes by the rest of the players.

Club Mini Champs a great success

It was a really good turnout with 20 players playing in 3 teams. Richard had done a great job coordinating and organising things, even constructing really equal teams which meant all the matches were pretty close. But in the end it was obviously a fix (!) with Richard's team winning the final!

Duncan S was awarded player of the tournament (quiet and steady) as identified by Karl (ref) and Karen (scorer).

A really good night, which we'll be repeating again later in the season.

Seeking Beginner Friendly Fixtures

Due to our rather successful summer recruitment campaign, Kings Langley have a large number of players looking to play in a small number of games. Rather than have people sat on the bench, we've decided to split our Div 2 squad between the existing "Knights" team and a new development squad we're going to call the "Rooks".
