THE Guernsey Volleyball Association is celebrating its 30th birthday tonight with a lavish black-tie dinner at St Pierre Park, but the sport’s beginnings in the island were far more humble.
Volleyball in the Bailiwick has come a long way.
It presently has 400 registered players with 31 teams battling it out in seven leagues. Guernsey has also entered a volleyball team into every Island Games since the first one in the Isle of Man in 1985.
And every October, Beau Sejour is swamped with visiting players taking part in the Guernsey Open.
