Welcome to Chelmsford Volleyball Club - Competitions

Our current 2008-9 match schedule as far as is known is shown below.  The full club calendar is can be found at 'Calendar'.   Previous years results and press reports can be found by clicking left.

Essex Volleyball Association runs a number of competitions on both a league and cup nature. Matches are played during a season running from September to March with successful cup runs leading to further matches up to the finals in June. We run two teams and play in both league divisions with teams playing each other once at home and once away.

There are also four cup competitions. The Rucanor Cup is open to all clubs; teams losing in round 1 go into the Tachikara Plate competition. There is a separate Ladies competition, the Janet Bedford Cup. There is also a Handicap Cup competition, now renamed Phillips-Manning Cup, that is unique to the county. In this competition the starting scores are adjusted to reflect the strength of the teams and sets played up to 30 points. We enter the Rucanor and Phillips-Manning Cups

All other league and cup matches are best of five sets using the standard scoring system that every rally wins a point, with the winner the first to 25 points and two points clear. The fifth set if required is to 15 points and two points clear. The club will provide match playing shirts and shorts.

At each match we ask the officials to nominate the player who has contributed most to the teams performance and their names are shown after the rsult in the table below

Further details on Essex and Essex competition can be found at the Essex Volleyball Association web site www.volleyball.co.uk.
