WHAT IS IT?

Go Spike is your chance to try one of the best sports around – volleyball! Whether you’ve never played before and want to give it a go or you haven’t played since you were at school – or on holiday – Go Spike gives you the opportunity to come and try!

Go Spike sessions will be running all year round across England at numerous events, volleyball clubs, Universities, beach courts, parks and leisure centres.

Volleyball is a team sport in which two teams are separated by a raised net. Points are scored when the ball lands on the opponent’s side of the court.
