Date: 7 and 8 June 2007 Location: Weymouth www: n/a. Contact Ian Loke. Details: A tournament for NVL ladies teams only held indoors at Weymouth. The tournament is seeded giving division 2 and 3 teams a good opportunity. Riga Ladies 2 entered a team for the first time in 2007. It was a tournament with a LOT of volleyball! The ladies' first match was against Div 1 Wessex! The weekend saw some great competition and a brilliant opportunity to play some very high level volleyball. Very enjoyable.

Date: 19/20 July Location: Bath Rugby Club www: www.whitefieldvolleyball.co.uk/ Details: Undoubtedly one of the most popular tournaments in the summer calendar and has been going for 34 years this year! This year Riga has entered a men's premier indoor team and a mixed team which will take part in the outdoor mixed competition. There is limited camping available on site so book early. In the evening there's the tournament disco or the many pubs of Bath (as the venue is right in the City Centre – so you can even shop between games!).

Date: 9/10 Aug Location: Gloucester www: n/a Details: Another tournament that's been a firm fixture in the diary. This is a men's, women's or mixed 6s tournament. There is a tournament disco and camping is available at the site. Last year was the first at a new location with improved club house and showering facilities – but still not enough to tempt Jayne under canvass so she can vouch that there's a handy Travel Inn opposite the venue (or quite a few miles down the road if Sarah books it!).
