World Best Sports

The Epsom College girls’ and boys’ volleyball teams almost made it a winning double at last week's National Independent Schools’ Beach Volleyball Championships in Brighton. The girls retained the trophy they won at the inaugural tournament last year, while the boys finished runners-up.

Hosted by Brighton College, the tournament was played in glorious weather on the Yellowave beach courts on the Brighton seafront. Teams were made up of four players – rather than the usual two in beach volleyball and six in indoor volleyball – to make the game more accessible to all squad members.

In the preliminary rounds, Epsom's girls beat Brighton College, Reed’s, Farnborough B and Roedean, suffering just one defeat, to Lancing College. They topped their group and moved into the semi-final, where they met Farnborough A.
