The CERN Volleyball Club is a CERN club but open to people from both inside and outside CERN who enjoy playing volleyball indoor as well as outdoor: beach volley and grass volley.
Each team competes in the AGVB Championship which starts in September/October and runs until May.
Mixed Team – CERN II
We are a mixed team (minimum 3 girls on the field during competitions) playing in the Geneva Association of Volleyball in the highest category (A) of the “Relax League“. We also compete in the Coupe Genevoise and other local tournaments.
How to join
We will not require anyone to become a member (pay the fee) at the beginning, everyone is welcome to come !
However, after several trial trainings, paying the fee is obligatory. The fee covers expenses related with trainings, matches and sport equipment. But do not worry, based on your skills, we will let you know if you are likely to join every practice, and be on the team most matches, or if this is not the case.
If you would like to join, please check Join the Club and also send an e-mail to our coach
