SW Teams at the 2023 IRB

It was another excellent Inter Regional Beach Championships at the Cardiff Beach Volleyball Centre this weekend, lots of volleyball for everyone. This year the Southwest had three teams entered (Girls x 2, Boy’s x 1) and at the end of two days of competition, the Girls finishing in third and eighth place, and the boys finishing in sixth place.

What did we learn:

We still do not do team photos very well, it’s a SW thing. Perhaps white on our new 2023 beach vest tops may not have been the best colour to choose. We also went self-catering for the first time this year, and yes, boys do wash up as well.

Well done to:

  • SW1: Katie Tuohey, Molly Quinn & Heidi Bright, Charlie Chambers
  • SW2: Freya Astbury, Rosie Miller & Louise Wiener, Szaffi Szuce
  • SW: Harry Brett, Isaac Gibbs & Ben Cortinhas, Olly Sharps

And a special big thankyou to our helpers Becky & Violetta and coaches Ben Fairweather, Dan Mrowiec, Dave Reece & Dave Gunter.

Also, big congratulations to all our friends and members from South Wales for their excellent second place finish in the Girls and fourth place in the Boys event.
