DVC are ahead of the game this year thanks to early preparations carried out by the DVC Coaching team and Committee to plan for the season ahead . This news of coaching appointments for next season is topped and made all the better by the fantastic last minute move by the VAI to promote 3 teams from Division 1 men’s league. So now DVC Men join the Premier Women in the Premier League.
