Volleyball
General Information: Practices start the first day of school on Tuesday August 27th after school. The season runs until Oct. 20th. 6th grade volleyball starts on Tue. Sept. 3rd and runs until Oct. 13th. Teams are formed on a grade level basis.
Athlete Responsibilities: Students must complete all athletic paperwork before they will be allowed to practice. Volleyball girls need modest T-shirts and shorts and gym shoes for practice (no tank tops). Knee pads are recommended but not required. For games we only provide the jersey, the girls provide their own spandex volleyball shorts. Here is an example link from Big 5 of volleyball shorts similar to what most of the girls wear, if that helps. Black shorts of some type are required: http://www.big5sportinggoods.com/store/details/Court%20Casuals+Womens-Volleyball-Shorts/4375125343309/_/A-3962305?#.VeXTnSxViko
