Training Opportunities Abound, Take Advantage

Whew, summer has arrived. Time to refresh. For some, a few national volleyball tournaments are still to be called. But for most, this is a time to think about your goals for the fall season, what you want to improve upon and what you can do to become the best partner you can be. Please consider these valuable training opportunities at little or no cost, all offered locally, to help you step up your game. Those who assign you will be taking notes on who chooses to participate in self-improvement initiatives.

A Wonderful State of the Union

Jason Gonwick and Brent Radford enjoyed their first experience calling a Washington State Volleyball Tourney, the 1B/2B at Yakima. Radford and Gonwick each called a semifinal match in the 1B tourney, and Radford was R1 in the championship match. Debbie Spray called a semi in the 1A Tournament, and Shawna Sheehan called the 3rd-4th place contest in the 2A tourney. Barb Twohig represents SAVRA in the 3A/4A Tourney, Nov. 16-17.
