The Gotham Knights are back from Dublin, Ireland, having taken 3rd place out of 28 teams from around the world - and first among North American teams - at the 4th Bingham Cup. Now we're getting ready for our Fall 2008 season, to build on our second place finish in the Men's Division III of the Metropolitan NY union.

Want to join the fun? We're always looking for new members, no prior rugby experience required. All you need is the desire to push your boundaries and have loads of fun.

Gotham Volleyball is the largest gay sports organization in New York City. Our members are primarily gay and lesbian but we also welcome individuals who are bisexual, transgender, and straight. The main purpose of Gotham is to promote the development and enjoyment of the sport of volleyball among the gay and lesbian community in particular, as well as the general populace. We are a sports organization that encourages competition in a friendly and supportive atmosphere. Several times a year we hold fundraising tournaments in which we donate proceeds to various organizations in our community.

Tryouts: Tryouts and team assignments are held at the beginning of each season for a wide range of skill levels. Higher divisions play using the 6-2 formation on the court while our lower divisions play with the traditional 4-2 formation.

Players who have never played in our league before MUST ATTEND tryouts so their skill level can be evaluated. (Our team captains cannot select a player they haven't seen play before.) If you are new to our league and have questions about what levels to try out for, please contact info@gothamvolleyball.org. Those new to volleyball should read our guide to those new to the game, listed below.

Returning members, especially those who are seeking to switch divisions, are strongly encouraged to show up for tryouts. Given the increase the League has been getting during our tryouts each season, we encourage our returners to be open minded and sign up for as many divisions as they reasonably feel comfortable playing in.
