Volleyball
Hillcrest High School has a strong volleyball tradition, with teams regularly competing at National Tournament. We are very fortunate to have ex National player Miss McIlroy and her partner Himi Whitewood as coaches. Both Himi and Miss McIlroy have a plethora of experience coaching many National Volleyball teams over the years. Last year saw our junior boys volleyball team take out the North Island Secondary Schools Championship title. We also host the Sunday Social Volleyball league here at our HHS gyms beginning Sunday 26 May for 6 weeks and this is open to both students and the wider community.
