The 2023 Cup Finals took place on 22nd and 23rd April, with some of the best teams in the country going head-to-head in the National Cup, National Shield, and Sitting Volleyball Grand Prix finals. They were joined by the next generation of talent from the U18s, U16s and U15s National Championships in a packed programme at the National Volleyball Centre. 

Played out in front of almost 1,000 fans across the weekend, 22 teams battled it out to be crowned champions in their respective finals.

Charlie Ford, Chief Executive of Volleyball England, said:

"The 2023 Cup Finals was a simply phenomenal weekend of sporting action.

"The atmosphere and on-court action was second to none, and I'd like to thank the teams and officials for putting on a spectacle for the spectators in attendance and the thousands of fans watching online.
