Cairns Volleyball brings Cairns Cup back
THE second biggest annual volleyball cup, the Cairns Cup, is about to kick off again this October.
It may not be as big or as heavy as the Melbourne Cup, it will not get you in the history books, but it will make you love everything there is to love about volleyball.
Schools are nominating local clubs; mates are nominating mates, and, rumour has it, a work team is looking to nominate.
An exciting nomination has also come in for a team to compete from Brisbane.
So, what is the appeal of the Cairns Cup? An environment of fun, friends, and sportsmanship.
Hosted at Trinity Bay State High School Sports Hall from October 15-16, the Cairns Cup will be on display in all its glory.
Families, friends, and former players are welcome to see what volleyball looks like in Cairns in 2022.
For those playing the long game and interested in participating in a competition in preparation for the 2023 Cairns Cup, commencing Wednesday, October 12, the Cairns Volleyball Association will kick off its Social Mixed (modified) season.
The Social Mixed season is where teams of up to 10 (six on the court) can nominate for the nine-week season, where a minimum of three females must be on the court at all times, making up their court team.
Social Mixed is a great way to ease into Volleyball in Cairns, and Cairns Volleybal cannot wait for new members to join the team at the Mulgrave Rd Youth Hall on Wednesday nights from 6.30pm.
