Volleyball

To understand me you must understand my passion for volleyball. The last eight years of my life have been filled with training in what I would consider to be the best sport. I played at the varsity level all four years for my high school career and the school off-season was filled with club volleyball. My passion for this sport has left me with many bruises, a few concussions and hundreds of great memories! I love the rush of a win and I cry with each defeat but as in life, every loss is a…

back into my head. I was so happy my cousin made me join beach volleyball. I was never the outgoing type or the person who tried to make new friends and talk with strangers. For some it was only a sport, but for me it was watching me grow as a person, experience new things, coming out of my shell and showing that fun crazy side of me. We both get to practice, closing my car door I can see about 20 other girls passing the volleyball around and i was excited I could here my heart beating out of…

with teenagers. My mom was about to have a fit, but she eventually got over it. My mom had recently bought a cheap volleyball net that one of the boys found in the pool storage box. We enjoyed playing volleyball. We continued to yell at each other. “It’s our ball!” “No, it’s our ball this round!” None of us actually knew the rules of volleyball but we acted like we did. After volleyball was over, we continued to stay in the pool and converse about whatever came to mind until dark. Everyone…

that does not have someone who can lead the team to success in victories but also in one another. I am not completely sure that I would want to be a basketball coach, but I know that one day I plan on being a coach for either volleyball or basketball. Right now I am a volleyball referee about four times a week and I see how people are coached. Coaches are a key component to a successful team. To be a coach, you must first be selfless. This means that you must put your team before yourself so…

from Jake Kerschner to send Central Dauphin boys volleyball to the state semifinals, I could feel the excitement spread through the gym like wildfire. Never had I expected I would feel that much exhilaration over a volleyball game. Little did I know attending that state playoff game would dramatically change the course of my four years of high school. Less than one year later, I decided that I wanted to experience that rush of adrenaline that volleyball seemed to promise. When I told my family…

how my life live is going. I am 16 years old and a junior in high school. I still love playing volleyball and this year I was the starting setter on the varsity team where we made it to playoffs. My goal is to get a scholarship to play college volleyball, and I already have several schools talking to me. I want to work with children so I am planning to major in Education. I also play club volleyball…

Glen Este High School Athletic Boosters Scholarship During my freshmen year at Glen Este High School, I was a part of the volleyball team. From being involved in athletics, even though it was just for a year, I have learned valuable life lessons such as teamwork, confidence, and has promoted me to carry out an active lifestyle. First of all, from playing volleyball, I began to value teamwork since it taught me how to collaborate with a group of people working towards a common goal. This…

already thought of methods to incorporate volleyball courts into any of the public parks that have existing basketball courts. This method has already been used at the Reggie Wong Memorial park in Chinatown; there are lines for a volleyball court painted over the lines for the basketball courts, thus conserving space and maximizing recreational capabilities. A volleyball court is only slightly smaller than a basketball court in size, meaning a volleyball court can actually fit inside of a…

Kattie Nail Oct, 8 2015 1B Never Give Up! Bam! The ball hits the net and roles on the gym floor. I have played Volleyball for two years. I've never had so much trouble with something before. " How could something that looks so easy be so hard?" Volleyball has been my favorite sport for the longest time, I never knew I would actually get to play! I have made some of the best of friends through games, camps, and just being on the team. When I was in the eighth grade I had tried out for…

fortitude involved when competing. I am also a very competitive person, and the sports I played provided me another outlet for my competitive spirit. But it wasn’t until seventh grade that I found the sport that I fell in love with. Since I joined volleyball two years after most of my peers, I was put on the “B-team.” I was determined to work as hard as I could to make the “A-team” the next year. Unfortunately, my hard work did not lead to immediate…
