VA Announces Beach Volleyfest Officials
We all know that international and domestic competitions don’t happen without the hardworking and dedicated officials who are on the courts for every single game, ensuring the athletes have a fair and fantastic experience.
Volleyball Australia recognises and congratulates the 29 referees who have been appointed to the Great Ocean Road Beach Volleyfest, starting in Torquay, Victoria on Wednesday 23 November.
One selected referee that will be leading the charge and helping guide the other officials in Torquay will be Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games referee Tanya Kowland.
Tanya recently shared her Birmingham experience, and her advice for others looking to advance their refereeing career into the international ranks. Read more about Tanya’s story.
