Thank you, Coach 南谷 綾華 and Michiko Takenaka for coming and hanging out with us last Monday💙🩷 Always, amazing to coaches from other parts of the world coming to say hi 🇯🇵

Great rallies, big blocks, the occasional boop, heavy net bands that somehow trickled over, and a set so high it may have single handedly caused the eclipse. 🌑🏐

Plenty of quality volleyball on show… followed by a gentle reminder that our cameraman was apparently trapped on the x5 lens for a while 😂

Big up CP!

Big up another amazing week at the CP fun camp! Last week. Check out what the little legends got up to 🙌

Big blocks. Bigger swings. Tiny boops. One outrageous no-look set over. And an Oscar-worthy performance convincing everyone the ball was going out... at the small cost of ending up three courts away.

Well done to everyone on the weekend, you guys were ledge as usual!

The smiles say it all. ☀️🩵

Week 2 has been full of fun, friendship and sunshine, with plenty of shade and water breaks helping everyone stay cool while enjoying every minute of camp.
