If the first half of the season is any indication, all grades associated with Volleyball Horsham’s domestic competitions are in for some great volleyball in the second half.

Heidelberg has assumed top spot on the A Grade ladder after a thrilling win over Volleyroos in round six.

It is four points clear of second-placed Phantoms, which are percentage ahead of Shados Inala, with Volleyroos slipping to fourth.

Pegasus and Von Steiger Bloods will be out to bridge the gap on the top four when play resumes next week.

In B Grade, Von Steiger Shadows, on 28 points, are percentage clear of Waterhammers with both teams sitting on five wins and one loss for the season, followed closely by Heidelberg Masters who are also on five wins and one loss but are one point behind. Those three teams have put a gap on fourth-placed Von Steiger Boomers and fifth-placed Parma Army.

In C Grade, Holy St Pats has established a clear lead on top of the ladder on 30 points, undefeated after six games, with Heidelberg eight points adrift on 22.

Murtoa Railway and Bingo Biddies are then on 20 and 19 points respectively.

Two young teams in Murtoa Lizards and HTLC Raiders round out the top six.

Junior competition has Murtoa Geckos clear on top on 29 points, undefeated after five games, with Phantoms hot on their heels on 26 points.

Von Steiger Breakers are third on 19 points and those three teams have put a big gap on the next three younger teams.
