Barton urges Olympic fans not to miss Scottish dates
The GB men’s volleyball team face Belgium in a three-match series at Edinburgh University’s Pleasance Sports Complex in a week that sees the Olympic torch relay hit the streets of Edinburgh.
The team – which will feature former City of Edinburgh middle player Mark McGivern – open on Tuesday night (7pm) and then face the Belgians again on Thursday (1pm) and next Saturday (3pm).
