Coyle has joined from Sheffield International Venues Ltd where he was the city's programme manager for London 2012.

 

“No-one should underestimate the challenges we will face to get GB representation in Beijing 2008 in the beach event and in all volleyball disciplines in London 2012, but I consider it is achievable” Coyle said.

Richard Callicott, Chairman of British Volleyball, is confident of the development on the GB Programme.

 

“Wayne’s post, as programme manager, will support all the individuals in the programme – the players, coaches and support staff and provide them an environment to operate at high level," said Callicott.

 

"We are putting structures into place that will link with the Home Nations so that the performance level of volleyball throughout Great Britain is raised”

The indoor volleyball programme continues to hold training camps at which talented players are identified and developed.
