About us
What:
Playing volleyball for fun, fitness and making new friends.
We generally play Sunday afternoon at Sydney Park (Winner of the Jury Award in the Architecture + Water category of the 2020 Architizer A+ Awards, in New York) and sometimes we book and play indoor volleyball at a nearby Sport Centre.
No fixed teams, just mix and match players to try and get fairly balanced teams, so that we can all enjoy the game. The main aim is fun for ALL.
Who:
Anyone who wants to run around madly chasing the ball in the park.
We have events for:
(A) All levels, including 1st timers (all you need is enthusiasm and willingness to learn the rules of the game);
(B) Intermediate and Experienced players only.
Where:
"The Village Green" at Sydney Park in Alexandria/Saint Peters.
We have 2 nets and a few balls and choose the best spot we can in the middle of the park. This is a large, open area, close to the cafe, toilets and children's playground area (approx 80m in front of the cafe/kiosk).

Volleyball on Monday Anzac Day Public Holiday
Sydney Park, King St St Peters, carpark on left after the two chimney stacks, Sydney, AUPlay social volleyball in a structured yet easy-going relaxed atmosphere.
All levels welcome, from "never-played-before" to "advanced".What we usually do:
- Set-up volleyball nets/courts. Warm up drills. Play time.
- Mixed games (each team will have a mix of players of different playing level). This allows intermediate and beginners to learn from the the more experienced players. Note: Advanced players are NOT allowed to serve or spike hard. If they do, they may be asked to leave.
- Level-based games. We will form teams based on skill level, so the more advanced players don't have to hold back any more and the more intermediate or beginners can practice what they've learned with other players of a similar playing level.
- Pack-up equipment. Please don't leave any equipment, belongings or rubbish behind.
FREE event
We will provide the volleyball equipment, a bluetooth speaker (accepts USB sticks and memory cards) and the space to play.
You BYO everything else (suitable clothes, footwear, water bottle (there are taps you can use to refill), sun protection, food, etc.).Since it is a public holiday, feel free to bring something extra (snacks, food, drinks) for yourself and/or to share - no pressure or obligation.

We play in the large flat open area opposite the Kiosk/Cafe (with toilets) and children's playground. These maps should help:See you at the park!

Waitlists/allocated spots are now discretionary and not in order of response. This is to assist running the event as smoothly as possible for the organiser and the players & also to reward loyalty (members and regular players and those who turn up on time).
