Sitting volleyball is another version of Volleyball that has been adapted to allow anyone to participate including those with a disability. The game is also an excellent vehicle for players returning from injury during rehabilitation.
Since the announcement of 2012 the Great Britain programme has been re-established and Croydon VC has direct links to the GB coaches.
The club would like to start some introductory sessions over the course of the season.
