WEYMOUTH Volleyball Club’s National League Division One side continued their successful start to the season with two victories in the last two weeks.

Weymouth progressed to round three of the National Cup with a 3-1 win over London League side SQUAD.

This now gives Weymouth a fantastic home draw against Malory, who play in the Super League, are the current cup holders and regarded as the Manchester City of English volleyball.

In National League Division One, Weymouth got their season off to a flying start this weekend when they travelled to the North West to play Manchester Marvels and won 3-0.

Weymouth went to Manchester without two regular members of the side in Sam Groom and Liam Tewkesbury who were both unavailable.

However, they were able to give debuts to three strong signings in England Beach player Harry Jones, England under-18 international Tom Lycett and American star Michael Whal.

All three had strong debuts but Wahl was outstanding with great service receive and clever hitting.

Each of the three sets followed a similar pattern with both teams evenly matched during most of the sets but towards the end of each set Weymouth’s continued pressure, including strong serving from Darren Harding and Seb Smith, gave them the edge and they were able to take each set relatively comfortably.

Weymouth’s captain and setter Ryan Stout was voted MVP for his excellent distribution in setting up the attacks for the Weymouth hitters.

Weymouth now have a run of home matches starting today when they play London Aces.

They follow this with another home league match against Cambridge on Saturday, November 4 and then they follow that with probably the biggest match the club have ever had.

That statement is a compliment to Malory as they visit Dorset in the third round of the cup on Saturday, November 11. All these matches start at 2.30pm and admission to Redlands is free.
