About Us
Volleyball England is the recognised National Governing Body for volleyball, beach volleyball and sitting volleyball in England and is responsible for the delivery, development and promotion of the three disciplines.
It was founded in 1972 as the English Volleyball Association, replacing the Amateur Volleyball Association of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, which itself was established in 1955.
We run the National Volleyball League, the top volleyball competition in England for clubs, support England national team athletes to compete internationally, and grow and develop the game by working closely with our network of clubs. We also organise national sitting volleyball competitions. UKBT is a national partner for beach volleyball competitions in England.
Our Purpose
