Class meets 1st period during the fall and spring. In season, practice begins at 7:00 a.m. for freshmen. Games are Tuesday and Fridays with some weekend tournaments and/or practices.
Tryouts are mandatory and start the first week in August, BEFORE school begins.
Team Camp is the last week in July (3-5 days) and although it is NOT mandatory, it is beneficial to those who are trying out for volleyball. It is IMPERATIVE that athletes receive information from Coach Keeney before August tryouts.
Volleyball summer packets will be delivered to middle schools in MAY so all interested 9th grade girls know important dates for tryouts and have all paperwork necessary for August tryouts. Conditioning and weightlifting occur year round with offseason adding running, footwork and skill training.
Athletes wanting to tryout need to understand that the volleyball program has very high demands on student/athletes. We pride ourselves on our work ethic and hold ourselves to a high standard on the court and in the classroom. Many athletes play club volleyball and although it is very beneficial, it is not mandatory. Athletes will be measured on athleticism, skill, and knowledge of the game. |
