If you have any interest in volleyball - as a player, a prospective recruit, or simply a curious spectator - an evening at Maynooth Volleyball Club’s Summer League is worth a look. The club runs a multi-division league through the summer months, with the standard ranging from competitive club players to those just getting started. It is a genuine community set-up rather than a polished spectator event, but that is part of the appeal: you can watch a few fast, athletic sets and get a real sense of whether the club is somewhere you would want to join.
Matches run across multiple courts at Maynooth Leisure Centre, with different divisions in play on the same evening. The 7:30pm start suits those coming straight from work or from the university campus nearby. With spectator seating available and free admission, it is an easy evening out. If you are keen to get involved rather than just watch, an evening at the league is a natural way to make contact with the club and see how things work before committing to anything.
Maynooth is about 25 km west of Dublin city centre on the N4/M4 corridor. By train, Irish Rail runs regular services from Dublin Connolly and Pearse stations, with the journey taking around 35 to 40 minutes; the station is a short walk from the town centre. Dublin commuter buses also serve the route. If driving, parking is available at the leisure centre itself.
Maynooth is an interesting town to spend a little time in before or after an evening event. It is built around its university, with the older St Patrick’s College campus and Maynooth Castle - a 13th-century Geraldine stronghold - giving the town an unusual mix of ecclesiastical history and student energy. The Royal Canal Greenway passes through here too, if a pre-match stroll appeals. There is more to see in Maynooth and across Co. Kildare.
