Social Volley aims to remove the barriers of entry to Volleyball and creates a fun relaxed environment that supports anyone interested in taking up or returning to the sport. These sessions are run by individuals or groups inside or outside of volleyball clubs, and are open to anyone to join.
The emphasis is on fun, socialising, keeping fit and making friends. If someone who plays Social Volley wishes to compete they can progress to more competitive section of clubs to fulfil that desire.
Social volley opportunities include kids blitzes and fun sessions, courses for beginners of any age and gender, courses or fun sessions for former players, recreational sessions for intermediate and advanced players, and any other activity that brings people close to volleyball without involving commitment in a club.
Volleyball Ireland aims to support these activities, to grow the Irish volleyball community and to allow every kid and every adult looking for a place where to play volleyball to find their group and enjoy the sport.
