Welcome to the Staffs Men's Volleyball team!

As a club we pride ourselves on having an offer for everyone, from National League players to complete beginners we have something for you. After promotion last season, our Men's team play regular fixtures in BUCS Midlands 2A with the hope of securing another promotion this year. We have a strong link with the National League Club Newcastle Staffs, which help provide our best players with a chance of playing national league!

Our home court is also used by the England Men's seniors and U22's as a training facility.  

We have a very good bond with the Women's team and frequently enjoy joint socials on and off the court.
