The world’s top-rated footvolley player will be in Swindon this weekend for a special event.
Swindon Footvolley Club is hosting a free family-friendly day of sport, food and fun on Sunday, September 15 at Coate Water Park’s sand pit, kicking off at 9am.
The team are offering the chance to see footvolley in action – a game similar to volleyball where players are not allowed to use their hands and a football replaces a volleyball.
Otávio Souza, the current best footvolley player in the world, will also be attending the event to speak about the sport and meet local people.
