Our story
How a group of friends in Surrey built a volleyball club for the Telugu community.
Deccan United started in 2024 when a group of Telugu friends in Surrey wanted a regular, competitive game and a reason for families to get together on weekends. What began as pickup volleyball grew into a club with jerseys, sponsors and its own tournament.
Today we host our own tournament day, compete in community tournaments around BC, and bring families together around the court. Everyone is welcome to play, watch, volunteer or sponsor.
