Gregor Walker’s Hits & Giggles’ side ended a spectacular season by winning the Perth & District Volleyball League’s Recreational title for the first time in the final round of fixtures at Bell’s Sports Centre on Sunday evening.
The title was never in question on Sunday evening with Jonny Robertson’s Motley Crew first to fall to H & G’s winning ways closely followed by Fiona Wilkie’s Mongrels, both sides losing by two sets to love giving the champions a clean sweep having won all twenty games this season.
Jane Cafferty’s Hitting Bricks finished as runners up and they too finished strongly dumping Perth High A and Mongrels by two sets to love and they will be looking forward to renewing their championship challenge next season after a well earned summer break. Bricks were brought back to earth however in the fixture against Ray McIntosh’s Aberfeldy with the Breadalbane side winning the first set 25-20. The second set was a real scrap with Bricks battling back with a narrow 26-24 leveller. With a minute remaining there was only time to play one point and it went Aberfeldy’s way for the closest win of the evening.
Last year’s champions, Susan Scott’s See Me also finished in third place with two wins against Perth High A and Aberfeldy.

Jack Watson’s cup winning side Kinross BB Wildcats also finished the season well with three wins against Kinross BB, Motley Crew and Perth High B although their first set against Motley Crew turned out to be a bit of a Marathon with Wildcats clawing their way to a 30-28 win.
Karen Crockart’s Tay Pearls had a mammoth match against son Lewis Crockart and his Perth High A side with the youngsters just edging victory 25-23; 25-20.
