All details of these sessions are on the home page of our website www.harriersvolleyball.co.uk or more detailed on www.harriersvolleyball.co.uk/harriers-calendar.php

We train and play our home matches at St Albans Girls School (STAGS), Sandridgebury Lane, St Albans, Herts, AL3 6DB.

We will have team specific training sessions to work on match play. Please only turn up to your teams training session (see Teams section below to find out what team you are in).

We try to mix the training sessions up to have warmups, some fitness training, volleyball drills and game play. Again please check the home page regularly.

Teams

Harriers have 4 teams that play in the leagues organised by the Hertfordshire Volleyball Association.

HVA rules state that there has to be 6 players have to be named in mens division 1 teams. These players may not play down into another team. However, other players will be eligible to play up. So we encourage all players to achieve the best level they can and in turn may be picked to play at a higher level.

Jets - mens division one
minimum of 6 named players (see members area of the website for details of these players)

Hawks - mens division two
all other men

Ravens - womens division one
all women

Harriers - mixed division
any club member - but 3 ladies must be on court at any one time.

Matches

Each team plays in approximately 12 matches per season, 6 home and 6 away. All home matches are at STAGS on Monday evenings* from 8pm. Our away matches comply to the away teams schedule and can take place on any day of the week.

If you are playing for one of the teams, please make every effort to make yourself available for as many matches as you can.

Team captains will request players for each match, please respond as soon as you can in case alterations have to be made.

Numbered shirts are essential for any match.

Match fees are £1 per set.

*Matches may be played on a Wednesday session due to congestion or cancellation.

Fees

Our annual subscription is £150 and covers all training sessions between September and April.

This can be paid in one installment of £150, two installments of £75 or 12 installments of £15 (conditions apply and match fees are included)

This can be paid in 3 ways.

In addition to the annual subscription, there are match fees applied to all teams and are £1 per set. Any part set played, due to substitution, is generally charged if majority of set is played.

Summer Tournament

Since 2009 we have been running a 4-a-side summer tournament during July at Spencer Fields in Sandridge. Over 20 teams enter mens, womens and mixed divisions and enjoy a quality bbq, licenced bar, raffle and some great volleyball.

Not only is this good fun, but it is a useful money raiser for the club.
