WATER VOLLEYBALL UPDATE

Water volleyball will move to seven day per week schedule beginning on Tuesday, November 9.

Volleyball hours are 11:00 am to 2:30 pm (except in designated tournaments).

No starting early or playing past 2:30 “to finish the game”. Wednesday from 11:00 to 12:45 is LADIES ONLY,

and from 12:45 to 2:30 is for MEN ONLY.

For those who are new to Sandpipers volleyball, or who need to refresh themselves about the rules, the rules will be posted outside of Lot 502 (kitty-corner from the workshop).

 Please stop by and review the rules, and if you have any questions (or comments or ideas) the coordinator (Ian) will be happy to discuss them.

Now a couple of thoughts about courtesy & etiquette:

 When throwing the ball over the net back to the server, or particularly when throwing the ball back into the court of play, please yell “ball in” or “ball over” to ensure that people are aware that a ball is coming. Nobody likes to be blindsided in the head with the volleyball, and there is the potential for serious injury.

 When there are enough people to make 3 or sometimes 4 teams, please be courteous and play only 2 games in succession. Team rotation is that ALL of the players on the team closest to the stairs (west side of pool) leave the pool – the other team moves from the east side of the pool to the stair side, and the new team entering the pool goes to the east side of the pool. The new team on the east side will serve in the new game. Playing with differing numbers of players on each team (6 vs. 7 for example) is acceptable to keep teams together and to ensure that no players are left out or have more than their share of playing time.

 Finally, remember that the objective is to have fun!

 Please be respectful of other people who may not be as good a player as you are – give them the opportunity to practice and become good players too!
