It’s never been so easy to raise money for our club, it’s as easy as doing your shopping online.

It’s very simple – just visit http://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/causes/ravc to register and shop with over 2000 well known retailers like Amazon, Argos, M&S, eBay and many more. Whenever I buy something, the retailer makes a donation to Reading Aces Volleyball Club. They’ve helped other causes raise over £2,000,000 so it really does work.

I’d be really grateful if you could use easyfundraising too. It won’t cost you a penny extra to shop through easyfundraising and you can even save money with special offers and voucher codes.

It work with thousands of well known retailer including Boden, M&S, Argos, Vodafone and many more. Our retailers love supporting good causes and will donate a percentage of your spend to your cause when you shop with them through the easyfundraising site.

Well, I guess it’s better late than never…

Outdoor sessions are finally getting under way. We will be starting in Cintra Park on Wednesday 15th June at 7.30pm.

Cintra Park is near the town centre, off the A327 (Aldershot Road). If you know where the Sport Park is at Reading University, it’s just up the road on the opposite side from there.

Kitlocker changed the URL for our club shop without telling us.

The link I posted last night has been confirmed as correct.

Any problems ordering stuff, let me know.
