CUVC is currently the University's most successful sports club. The Men's and Women's Blues have consistently ranked in the top four Universities in the country and have represented Great Britain at the European University Championships in Serbia, Greece and Slovenia. Both teams have taken silver medals at the BUCS Championships and the EVA Student Cup on more than one occasion. The Men's Blues have also completed a rare BUCS and EVA Cup double win in 2001-2. The Men's Blues have won the majority of the Varsity matches over Oxford, whereas the Women's Blues have a 50% record over recent years.

The club caters for all levels of player, with second teams playing in regional leagues and beginners teams entered into a local league. The emphasis of the club is on enjoyment, both sporting and social, and our friendly coaches help anyone learn the basics or improve their game. Whatever your standard, we have a team to suit you!

CUVC's next event is on Wed 8th Feb 2012:  [more in Calendar]

All four Cambridge University Volleyball Teams will head towards Oxford on Sunday, the 26th February for the long awaited annual Varsity encounter. However, prior to the ever exciting Oxford challenge, the two Blues teams will have to stand up to the best 16 teams in the UK at the Volleyball England Student Cup Finals. After having won their respective pools comfortably at the Qualifiers back in November, both Blues teams are looking forward to the Finals weekend, to take place in Norwich mid February. The Men are determined to fight their way back into the top three in the competition, after gradually having dropped positions since 2007/2008. The Women, whose Student Cup record has been improving over the past two years, are also highly motivated this year, and hope to set a team record by reaching the Semi-Final stage.
