RVB Girls win Bronze medal at u16 National Finals

David Rijvers on March 10, 2016 in Community | Juniors | News Archive | NVL Women | South London Volleyball League

For the first time in our history we had two girls teams in the U16 Last 8s. The B team were in a very tough group with Beach Academy, Tameside and Boswells and even though they didn’t win a match they acquitted themselves extremely well.

The A team, trying to reach their second final in 2 years, topped their group without dropping a set against Black Country, Westminster and Taunton to set up a best of 3 set semi-final against Tameside. After winning the first set 25-17 our girls took an early lead in the second only to lose narrowly 25-23. Tameside then broke away in the decider to win 15-9. Well done to all 21 girls, it was great weekend!!!!

Andre Montenegro

Martin Rees on November 26, 2015 in Beach Volleyball | Community | Leagues | News Archive | South London Volleyball League

It is with great sadness that we have to inform you that our dear friend Andre Montenegro passed away on Monday, the 23 November 2015.

Everyone who knew Andre will always remember his smile and friendliness, commitment and passion, support and positive attitude, generosity and humour.

He was one of the coordinators of the RVB Open Beach Volleyball Club and through his encouragement and coaching many new players got into volleyball.

We send our deepest sympathy to his family, in Richmond and in Brazil.

We will miss you , Andre!
