Members of the junior league volleyball team at St Gregory’s RC School are celebrating being crowned winners of the Kent Volleyball Association Schools’ League for under-16s.
The girls beat Sackville School in Sevenoaks and Townley Grammar School in Bexleyheath in last week’s tournament.
The junior league was started a few years ago due to the apparent lack of competitions in the sport for this particular age group, according to the tournament’s organiser Katie Jo Dolan. She added: “The Kent Volleyball Association agreed to start a league for school-aged children in the hope that some of the students involved would then move to join club volleyball within their areas.”
