Pro Volley Academy is thrilled to announce open trials this April for aspiring athletes to join Pro Volley Academy. Free tryouts are scheduled from April 2nd to April 5th at 9 am at Northolt High School. All school leavers aged 16 are invited to join. This is an excellent opportunity for your students to experience what Pro Volley Academy has to offer and to discover the benefits of combining their passion for volleyball with their academic path.
Pro Volley Academy is happy to invite students for a free try outs. All passionate players of the age between 16 and 18 are invited between 12th and 26th Feburary at 3pm in Northolt High School. The sessions will be taken by Head Coach Greg Niski who is also Head Coach of IBB Polonia London Super League team.
During 3-14 July 2023 (from 10:00 to 12:00) Pro Volley Academy will continue to hold open volleyball trials as well as showcase sessions for potential new player athletes. Anypotential players who are interested in registering for the 2023/2024 have the chance to take part in sessions run by Head Coach Greg Niski and find out for themselves if the program is right for them.
Before we welcome the students, who have joined the academy for the 2022/23 academic year, we would like to say goodbye to the youngsters leaving the Pro Volley.
After the very first two years of Pro Volley Academy, the first student athletes (female and male) have completed their two-year cycle linking education and a professional volleyball training program.
It is with delight that we can inform that two Pro Volley players were selected for the London team that took part in the Under 17 Inter Regionals Championship. Lexi was selected to the female team and Levi to the male.
On Sunday 24th April, the young players from Pro Volley Academy; the youth section of IBB Polonia London played the grand final of the youth competition; Greg Niski’s players took on Richmond Docklands and after an emotional four set encounter had to settle for silver medals. The game ended 3-1 in favour of Richmond Docklands.
In April, Volleyball England is attending a youth competition – Cornacchia World Cup – in Italy and it will be attended by twelve selected players from either gender. With great pride we can announce that three Pro Volley Academy male players and one female player have been selected for the two squads of twelve. We would like to congratulate the selected players and wish them lots of luck in the upcoming weeks.
On Saturday 12th March 2022, Pro Volley, the academy played the most recent round of matches in Group B with Wessex, Exeter VC and The Boswell School. The players under the eye of Greg Niski won their first two pools without losing a set, and their first two matches in similar style, but the last game saw a better opponent, however a tight count back decision gave the Pro Volley youngsters a ticket to the final.
"We have been delighted with our Sporting Excellence Academy partnership programme with IBB Polonia London.
The programme offers young aspiring athletes the chance to continue their education alongside specialist training, strength and conditioning and video analysis sessions preparing them for the world of professional sports."
Emma Chambers
Chairperson at Future Stars Charity
"The Pro Volley model is providing youngsters the chance of learning from the coaching staff of the top volleyball team in the UK. They have opened the door to professional volleyball for themselves. At the same time, they are receiving a high level of academic education as well."
