Haggards Crowther Proudly Backs Great Britain Over 55s at International Volleyball Tournament

We are delighted to share some news from outside the office!

Haggards Crowther is proud to sponsor the Great Britain Over 55s veterans volleyball team, which recently competed in the IVVA international tournament in Benidorm, Spain, from 6 to 10 October!

Facing experienced teams from across Europe, the squad finished 14th out of 16 in its first tournament together, gaining valuable experience against some tough opposition, including the eventual winners, Germany.

Andrew, our founding partner, played as a middle hitter and reflected on the week: “At the age of 58, not many things surprise me, but this week genuinely has. We should be rightly proud of what we have achieved. It is a start and I hope we have the opportunity to take things forward from here.”

At Haggards Crowther, we believe in commitment, teamwork, and perseverance, and we see those qualities reflected in this group of players. Steve, who has played competitively for nearly 50 years, summed up the spirit of the team: “Age does not necessarily mean you have to stop doing the things you love.”

The team will compete again at the next tournament in Prague in June 2027, and we look forward to following their progress!

We would like to thank everyone who has supported them so far. If you or your organisation would like to learn more about sponsoring or partnering with the team, please speak to your usual contact at Haggards Crowther and we will be pleased to help!
