About us
British Roundnet oversees the development and governance of the sport of Roundnet within Great Britain. As a non-profit and registered charity (no. 1207089) we are run by our trustees and a dedicated executive and volunteer team who make decisions in collaboration with our members. Roundnet (or known by the brand name Spikeball) is a new exciting sport that is played by four people around a transportable net. Played like volleyball, but onto rather than over the net, the two teams of two have to make it as hard as possible for the other to return the ball onto the net. Simple concept, hard to master. British Roundnet has a major focus on the both the accessibility and equality within of our sport and we hope to remain at the forefront of concerted action towards inclusion.
