Recap

The Donegal Volleyball League played its first ever season in 1992. The Ladies League was played over at least three gameweeks, with five teams entering. Milford ‘B’, and Twin Towns (Ballybofey-Stranorlar) were joint top on six points each having completed the league phase, with Tristar Castlederg, from Co. Tyrone, in third on four points with a game in hand versus bottom team Milford ‘A’ who lost all three of their games at that stage. Letterkenny completed the line-up with one win from their four games. While there is no mention in the newspapers of a Playoff system to decide the title, there was one in the Men’s League, played parallel to the Ladies League.
