Volleyball

The girls had their first volleyball game and absolutely loved it.  My thoughts on volleyball were only of the JR. high girls that played when I went to St. Peter.  Not exactly the best memories, but I basically had no idea what to expect.  It was exciting, fun and very cute.  The girls played way better than I thought they would and both girls served well and scored points. 
I appreciate their coach very much.  She is very soft spoken and calm, yet encouraging.  After each play when a girl makes an error she calmly tells them how to correct their form for the next time.  I was also suprised by how supportive all the girls are of each other.  There are a lot of high 5's and 'it's ok' said when one of them can't serve it over or return the ball.  They all play hard and seem to want to be there.  They really hope to continue in this sport, but I am not sure if it will work with the changes the base league is making to their youth sports.  We will try though.  I did my best to take action shots of the girls with the new camera.
