Weekly Recaps

Weeks 1-5 (October-November 2022)

After five weeks of the 2022-23 Volleyball Ireland National League Premier Women, Tymon-based Gardians PW held a slim two point lead over Santry Calypso, DVC Lions who are based in Clondalkin, and UCD. A point further back on nine points were Net Force from Bandon in Cork and Santry Premier with Naas Cobras from Co. Kildare and TCD still searching for their first points of the season. [Reference: 1]

Week 6 (27 November-11 December 2022)

After three close sets Net Force PW returned triumphant from their trip to Kildare to join leaders Gardians PW on 12 points at the top of the table. Bottom of the table TCD PW’s meet with top of the table Santry Calypso resulted in a predictable straight sets win for Santry, while UCD PW joined Calypso on 13 points at the top after coming from a set down to win 3-1 over DVC Lions who remained on 10 points. the fourth and final set in the match went to extra points as UCD ground out the win. [References: 1-2]

Week 7 (14-18 January 2023)

After going two sets up Gardians PW had to dig deep to win this match in overtime versus DVC Lions in Colaiste de hÍde in Tymon, Tallaght. The win put Gardians in joint first on 14 points with Net Force PW and UCD PW, after a thrilling game between the Cork side and the students on the South Coast where the hometown Net Force came back from two sets down to win the third set by 26-24 and then take the third 25-11 before closing out the match in overtime 15-7. At the foot of the table, TCD PW and Naas Cobras PW battled it out at Trinity Sports Centre for the first points of the season for either team, with the Red & Black of Trinity prevailing by three sets to nil over the Kildare team. Midweek following, Santry Calypso went back on top with a straight sets victory over fellow Santry team, Santry Premier.

O’Rourke, C. O’Rourke, T. Guiry, B. Roche, J. O’Keeffe and M. Sheehan. The County Championships were the Rural Championships in Co. Waterford and the Waterford Volleyball Street Leagues were the Urban Championships (but standard Volleyball rather than Street Volleyball).

Recap

The Donegal Volleyball League played its first ever season in 1992. The Ladies League was played over at least three gameweeks, with five teams entering. Milford ‘B’, and Twin Towns (Ballybofey-Stranorlar) were joint top on six points each having completed the league phase, with Tristar Castlederg, from Co. Tyrone, in third on four points with a game in hand versus bottom team Milford ‘A’ who lost all three of their games at that stage. Letterkenny completed the line-up with one win from their four games. While there is no mention in the newspapers of a Playoff system to decide the title, there was one in the Men’s League, played parallel to the Ladies League.

RECAP

As part of the Millennium celebrations in Belfast City, a Street Volleyball tournament was part of a series of events organized by Belfast City Council as part of the weeklong City Centre Sports New Millennium celebrations. After Cycling, Athletics and Basketball events outside Belfast City Hall, the Street Volleyball competition, the first of its kind ever in either Ireland or Britain, featured Men’s and Women’s U21 teams from Campbell College Belfast, Larne Grammar School (Co. Antrim), Craigavon Aztecs (Co. Armagh) and Enniskillen Blockbusters (Co. Fermanagh). This tournament would have been unthinkable given the security situation in the area around Belfast City Hall even just a few months previously and the event was a welcome return to normality and sport.

Craigavon Aztecs won the Women’s Tournament, defeating Campbell College Belfast on points (25-12, 23-25) and then a sweep of Enniskillen Blockbusters (25-12, 25-19). Enniskillen Blockbusters and Campbell College Belfast tied the third fixture 25-15, 15-25, with the Belfast team winning the deciding third set 31-29.
