One of the things I do in the winter other than staring at the snow melting is coach volleyball. I am currently coaching a U14's club team as well as our junior high volleyball team at the high school. Many of the girls are the same, just in a different configuration. Well, my u14's team had their first club tournament last weekend and what a blast we had. After the girls stared fear in the face, letting many balls drop left or right and looking at me in sheer terror with expressions of; "Where do I go?" "Am I here?" "Am I an outside hitter?" "Isn't Sammy supposed to be on my left?"; we started to play and ended up the day with 5 wins and 4 losses to take 5th place. I was very proud of the girls and had a good chuckle knowing at the next practice, I will have 10 girls paying VERY close attention to their offensive positions! It is amazing how much you think you know until you have to take the test. Lauren
