Woodend Volleyball on the hunt for players

Woodend Volleyball is on the hunt for players who can spike, set and serve as it looks to expand.

The competition, which has been going for more than 10 years, currently has four teams.

In its search for new blood, the competition will be happy to accept whole new teams.

The competition is holding a free come-and-try day on Thursday, February 2.

Natalie Korinfsky said the competition provided an affordable sports option for people of all ages.

“We’re hoping to add a couple more teams to the competition and build it up,” she said.

“We’ve got a mixture of people from juniors who are as young as 12 and players who are as old as 70.

“We encourage people of all ages and abilities to get involved.”

Korinfsky said existing players were happy to help new players learn the game, saying it didn’t take long to pick up the rudiments. She said it was a very social competition, with many players meeting up outside of game commitments.

Games are played on Thursday nights, with two seasons a year.

The come-and-try night will run from 7.30pm on February 2 at Buffalo Stadium, Woodend.
