It was a tough week in terms of numbers for the Roxby Downs Volleyball Association with one B-Grade team forfeiting and a number of A-Grade teams playing with minimal numbers or fill ins from other teams.

This may be the result of school holidays however we have seen quite a few players leave town recently, leaving gaps in teams that need to be filled.

If you would like to play or know of anyone who may like to join a team, please contact Kate on 0407 185 076.

In terms of game results for this week, the one game played in B-Grade on Monday night was an extremely close match with Hornridge just scraping in a win over the Tigers.

Both teams won two sets each however Hornridge took the win with an extra five points.

Apprentices unfortunately had to forfeit so Block Its get their points without having to lift a finger.

In A-Grade, the first game almost wasn't played with both Los Tintos and Soroush's Saints struggling to fill a side.

In the end, the game was started with four players on both sides, with two extras joining Soroush's Saints 20 minutes into the game.

Unfortunately for them, the two extra players didn't make a difference to the score, with Los Tintos winning the game three sets to one.

In the second A-Grade game, the unbeaten Benders claimed another win over Sina's Saints.

It seems every team is going to have to find a different strategy to get around the solid defences of the reigning premiers!

In the final match of the evening, Phoenix and Los As Say Toon Us played a close game with Phoenix taking the win two sets to one.
