UEA Volleyball is one of UEA’s most successful and sociable clubs, with socials every 2-3 weeks. We have training sessions to suit everybody no matter what level of play you’re at. Whether you’re a complete beginner, never having touched a volleyball or if you’ve been playing for years, we have a session to suit you!
If you have played volleyball previously at a certain level, you may get the opportunity to represent UEA in the Men's/ Women's teams which compete in BUCS and other local tournaments.
In addition, there is also the chance for beginners and intermediates to compete in our Local Development league which provides an ideal opportunity for new members to participate in what is an extremely enjoyable and rewarding competition.
If you like the sound of UEA Volleyball and are interested in playing, just come along to one of our training sessions or get in touch via Facebook (UEA Volleyball Club) or email at uea.volleyball@uea.ac.uk
We are a very friendly and welcoming club so don’t hesitate to get in touch as we would love to hear from you!

The Real Cost of Sport
The 'Real Cost of Sport' initiative, a project reviewed and rebranded by the Students' Union in partnership with uea+sport, aims to provide prospective members with a comprehensive overview of the potential costs of joining their chosen sports club. This year, I have worked closely with the clubs to ensure these tables are as accurate and up-to-date as possible.
This guide is intended to serve as a general reference. The compulsory cost includes the uea+sport membership fee of £55, which is a one-time payment that covers membership across all clubs.
When considering additional expenses, it is important to note that some clubs may not have any extra costs, while others might incur additional fees. These costs often depend on the level of competitiveness within the sport; recreational or social participation is generally less expensive. Additionally, some equipment, such as shoes or gum shields, may be used across multiple sports, potentially reducing overall expenses.
For any specific questions or further information about a particular club, please contact the club directly or contact us at union.opportunities@uea.ac.uk for more details about the project.
All the best,
Olivia Hunt
