The Coventry AT7 Volleyball Club started sometime in 1987, shortly after the inauguration of the new AT7 Sports & Leisure Centre.
First the club fielded a Men's Team in the Birmingham and District League. As the number of players grew, a '1st Team' played in the new West Midlands Division 1, when a '2nd Team' was playing in the local Warwickshire League.
At some point in the history of the club there even was a Mixed Team playing in one of the local leagues. Sadly this side of the club has disappeared.
Around 1996, the club was only able to enter one Men's Team into the local Warwickshire League. When that league disappeared to form most of the Division 2 of the West Midlands League, the club followed and carried on entering and the League and the Cup Competitions.
This was thanks to the commitment of the players, mostly from the continent!
At the end of the 2003-04 season, Coventry AT7 finished 1st of the West Midlands Division 2 League and was promoted to the Division 1.
In 2004, Coventry AT7 won the Final of the Plate Competition against Tamworth!
Since we regularly have so many players from Coventry University in our squad, we have decided to work closely with their Student Union during the 2006/07 season and actually resurrect volleyball at the local university in the process.
As part of our commitment to promote the game of
Volleyball at Coventry University, we are now
