Army Volleyball Association

The regional inter-unit competition feeds players into both male and female Army squads. In addition, Corps level volleyball has recently been introduced within the AGC and this is also used as a method of selecting Army players. However, players demonstrating both commitment and potential will be considered for development within both squads. Selection opportunities are incorporated into regular squad training periods.

Those with significant ability have the opportunity to represent the Army in senior competition and are eligible for UKAF selection; currently, approximately 20 male and female players are regular UKAF players.

The ladies are current Crown Services and Inter Services champions while the men have had recent Runners-Up places in both competitions. The Chairman’s intent is to build on the success of the last 4 years, continue to improve the overall standard of volleyball in the Army and expose Army volleyball to a wider audience with the purpose of increasing the numbers of participants at the appropriate level, this includes the Reserve component and female participation.
