Competition & Playing
• Our Women’s Phoenix squad coached by Nigel Spierts have topped the Berkshire League Div 1 Women’s.

• They narrowly missed out on the triple beaten in the Berkshire Plate by Reading.
• Vipers in the Men’s, after being relegated last season to Div 2 Berkshire League successfully secured a play-off place for promotion where they put on a thrilling performance to secure promotion back to Division 1.
• Hawks with many of our junior men playing achieved an admirable 4th place in Div 2 narrowly missing out on the play-offs
• Panthers mixed team came second in their Div 1 BVA league
• Lynx Mixed team did not come last in the second Mixed league.

• Several junior members attending the Volleyball England trials at Easter (Oliver, James, Monlina) for the South East regional development programme.
• The Junior U16 squad competed in the Berkshire Junior Cup coming 3rd

Social
