Our Story
21 Years of the All Nations Tournament
The All Nations event was founded in 2005, inspired by the Olympic ideals of sport, culture, and education. Created to celebrate community and cultural togetherness, it now stands as one of the UK's most beloved volleyball traditions.
“Did I know exactly what I was doing? No. Did I ever believe it wouldn't succeed? Absolutely not.”
Founded with a £1,000 grant from TimeBank
Partnered with Decathlon for kit & sponsorship
Celebrates unity, diversity & the joy of sport
Now in its 21st consecutive year
