No matter what ever your results are I hope that you all enjoy this season’s volleyball. Last season saw the European Volleyball Federation (CEV) impose on us that all NVL Clubs follow the correct procedures for International Transfer of players. This effectively means that annually any player competing in the NVL whose Federation of Origin is not England would need to follow this procedure and pay the appropriate fee. We were successful in negotiating a phased implementation of this with it only applying to Super 8 teams last season. However this season Division 1 Clubs must also now follow this new procedure.

  • The Award for Civic Arts Organisations 2021
    CELEBRATION2020– 21 Eden Court Empire Theatre as Humanitarian Introduction Aid Centre he world has changed rapidly over the past year. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought devastation, but also a reset in how we live our lives and how communities operate. Arts organisations are helping us to shape the future: culture, creativity and the arts are the basis through which we tell stories of our past, our Tpresent and our future, enabling us to realise what it means to be fully human, individually and collectively. Despite the considerable challenges and uncertainty that the arts sector faces, ‘green shoots’ have been emerging. Arts organisations across the country have channelled the anxieties of this period and boldly reimagined their missions to put their communities first. From delivering arts packs with food parcels to staging socially distanced carnivals, arts organisations are contributing to rebuilding our communities and restoring much- needed joy and optimism to our lives. As we face the challenges and opportunities of the coming months and years, arts and culture have an important role to play. However, much of this pioneering work is unknown, even within the arts sector itself. The Award for Civic Arts Organisations seeks to change that. Launched by the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation (UK Branch) in partnership with King’s College London in November 2020, the Award celebrates civic arts organisations and their response to the pandemic. Open to UK arts organisation in receipt of public funding, the Award provides funding totalling £150,000, as well as further support for the recipients to embed their work and share learning.
