6^th Grade Girls Volleyball Information

  1 – Skills Evaluation Night/Practice – On February 27, we will be holding skills evaluation/practice night so we can make teams as competitive as possible. All players will need to go home after school and return to GMS, ready to compete in the upper gym at 6:15pm. We will be finished at 7:45pm. Please pick your daughter up at the front of Goshen Middle School. If your athlete is unable to attend, they will need to set up another time to be evaluated. This must be setup before February 27. Contact Mrs. Yoder to make other arrangements.

2 – The first practice is February 28, 2017 from 6:15-7:45pm in the upper gym. Enter and exit at front doors. The following weeks there will be one practice per week and games on Mondays or Thursdays. Players must attend practice in order to be eligible to play in the entire match.   If a player misses practice they will not play in the first game of the match. If a player misses two consecutive practices, they will not play in the first two games of the following match. All matches will consist of three games. Parents are responsible for transporting players to games and practices. Players must always be picked up no later than 10 minutes after the conclusion of practices.

3 – Practice and Game Attire – GMS physical education shirt or athletic tee shirt with sleeves, shorts/sweatpants/volleyball shorts and tennis shoes that tie.
