Dolphin VC Welcome Page

Dolphins Volleyball Club caters for all ages and abilities in Volleyball.
New players are always welcome to come along for a taster session.

We have been based in the Haywards Heath / Burgess Hill area since the early 1990's and have grown to our present Club size of three Mens and two Ladies teams in the Sussex Local League. In 2007-8, we also entered new National League teams, for both Mens and Ladies, both of whom finished respectably mid-table in their respective divisions, and then both third in this, their second year of playing, narrowly missing the play-offs for promotion.

The Club trains and plays indoors from September until May - further information below regarding training sessions and league matches.

In the summer months we play outdoors at The Recreation Ground In Bolney on Wednesday evenings from 7:00 for 7:15 start as of Wednesday 17th June 2009 . (Go past the Eight Bells pub on your left, keep going and about 200yds on your right you will see the Recreation Ground). All welcome.

Going into their third season (2009-10), we have one National League ladies and one National League mens team entered into Division 3 of the National Volleyball League, both teams having narrowly missed out on promotion last season. We are looking for players within Sussex who would be interested in joining and playing some top class volleyball. We are lucky enough that as a county we have some exceptional players and think we have the potential to have a couple of great teams so please give this real consideration!

Training will be held at the Triangle Leisure Centre in Burgess Hill on Thursday evenings, from 8-10pm, on alternate weeks for Mens and Ladies training. Dependent on numbers this may be mixed.
PLEASE NOTE - HOME MATCHES ARE HELD AT THE ASHCOMBE SCHOOL, DORKING.

Mondays 8-10pm - this is usually Match Night once the season is under way, any spare weeks will be used for additional training sessions. Please check the Officiating Rota - if there is no Home Match for a specific Monday night, then there will be training.

Wednesdays 8-10pm. The first hour 8-9pm is a split session with two courts, one for ladies, one for mens and then 9-10pm will be mixed games. Again, check the Officiating Rota - we sometimes have to use a Wednesday to fit in the many matches our 5 teams have scheduled.
