Hey,

I am over in London for the semester

... Does anyone know where to look for volleyball over here? or a site to look at... I'm not sure how much these brits play, all this rain is no good for outdoor vb.

thanks!

Alley

I'm sure you've done this already but a quick search of "England Volleyball" on google gives some results. This doesn't look bad: Volleyball - England

My son was just in London this past weekend. He is going to school in Luxembourg this semester...

I didn't ask him if he saw any volleyball...

i coached a summer at kutsher's sports academy and made all this britty friends. one of them is a headhunter in london and just placed the ceo of volleyball england... apparently it's like our USA Volleyball, but it's like - the only resource in all of england.

what area of london are you in? i can get you some more specific information.

oh, and my friend asked if you were cute and single...

here's the link: English Volleyball Association

(make sure you hit up one of those chicago rock cafe places (i think that's what it's called) it's a chain of bars that plays all american music - they love us there, they'll buy you drinks all night)

Haha, thats awesome! i'm living in Islington. and yeah, i'm single... how could i be in london for a semester and not be! lol

thanks for the site i'll check it out... and i'll see what i can do about this Chicago Rock Cafe... sounds like a good time, better than the sports bar that i have to pay 5 pounds to get into to watch the super bowl... which is total "Bullocks" those "Wankers"

GO GIANTS!!!
