Roll on this week! 🙌

Throwback to our last 1* of the season, some great rallies from the day 💙

Thank you, Coach 南谷 綾華 and Michiko Takenaka for coming and hanging out with us last Monday💙🩷 Always, amazing to coaches from other parts of the world coming to say hi 🇯🇵

Great rallies, big blocks, the occasional boop, heavy net bands that somehow trickled over, and a set so high it may have single handedly caused the eclipse. 🌑🏐

Plenty of quality volleyball on show… followed by a gentle reminder that our cameraman was apparently trapped on the x5 lens for a while 😂

Big up CP!
