Recent Work
Recently, we co-hosted Aotearoa’s second Inclusive Volleyball event alongside North Harbour Volleyball for tamariki living with intellectual and physical disabilities. It was great to see so many young people having the opportunity to socialize with others, have fun, and learn a new thing or two! We hope that this is just the start for inclusive volleyball…watch this space! It was equally fantastic seeing North Harbour Volleyball coaches step in to a new space and be upskilled in this area.
