With the exception of the end-of-season tournament, games will normally be played on Sunday afternoons in the MBHS old gym at times ranging from 2:00pm - 6:00pm.

Practices:  For 6th grade will be offered on Mondays ONLY (so doesn't conflict with ballroom) at either 6:00pm - 7:00pm or 7:15pm - 8:15pm.

Parents, please consider being a coach, even if you have little to no experience with volleyball. All practices are run by a hired volleyball professional and parent coaches are at practices for support. Parent coaches will coach their team on Sunday games and be responsible for communications as needed. 

It is our intent that this be a recreational endeavor, with more emphasis placed on exercise, skill improvement, and fun than on records, wins, and losses. We believe that volleyball is an ideal sport at the beginner and intermediate levels to foster these goals.
