Waltham Forest School Games - Sitting Volleyball

11 Dec 2018

Our Sitting Volleyball team visited Peter May on Tuesday and competed in the inaugral Sitting Volleyball competition.  They had a bit of knowledge having attempted the game in some PE lessons but as with most teams and individals, this was a brand new experience.  They started well with a couple of wins and ended up top of their group with three wins and a draw.

The most pleasing things to observe were the growing confidence throughout the competition and the improvement, especially with many of their serves.

They won a tough semi final which meant they qualified for the final.  The final was an incredibly tight game:  11-11 with seconds to spare.  Keira had to serve and she hit the winning shot.  12-11 and we were champions!

This is a fantastic achievement, especially as it is a new game that the children learnt as they played.  They will now represent Waltham Forest in the London Youth Games, early next year.  Well done team.
