In August Volleyball England purchased a Speed Cage radar system – ‘The
Spike O Metre’ which measures how fast someone spikes the ball. It was used
at a number of events, the first being ‘Go Spike in Trafalgar Square’, which
along with the use of an outdoor court attracted 1,500 people.
BBC London were there to film the event – the footage can be viewed via the following link:
