Fall 2018 - Week 1: Thursday, September 6, 2018

Hey Ladies, 

I have the following 9 teams confirmed for this 2018 fall season:

-Team Watts
-Shelby Butler
-Impact (Michelle)
-Eliminators (Stacey)
-Chloe Yakashiro
-Danika Dvorak 
-Wei Chai 
-I'd Hit That
-Shanice

Sub List:
-Rachelle Strelezki (604-768-8566 or facebook)
-Megan MacDonald (cell: 778-549-8571, email: meganleemacdonald@gmail.com)

Candice Breland (Cory Breland) - cell: 778-863-4325

Since we have nine teams, yes, this means one team will sit each week (hopefully teams can use this to their advantage). 

Cost will be $150 per team ($25 per player). Please have cash or E-transfer (lindsaywatts07@gmail.com) submitted before you play your first match!!

As usual, timing is always a tricky factor. We MUST be OUT of the gym by 945pm. This means, games end at 930pm in order to allow for clean up time. Please be mindful of delays between games/time slots in order to give every one the most play time out of each night. 

Finally, please be sure to submit NEW waivers for your ENTIRE team (regardless if you have submitted one previously) before your first match is played!

Here is the schedule for week 1, Thursday, September 6, 2018:

Slot 1: 645pm to 800pm
-Shelby
-Impact
-Wei
-Chloe


Slot 2: 815pm to 930pm
-Danika
-Eliminators
-I'd Hit That
-Shanice

Sitting:
-Watts

You will be playing each team in your time slot 1 match to 31 points. 

Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions, comments, or concerns! Otherwise, we look forward to seeing everyone next week!

I hope to have the schedule set by the end of next week!

Fall 2018

Hey Ladies,

I have received confirmation that the gym will be available to us again for womens 6s volleyball on Thursdays from 645pm to 945pm. 

It sounds like we can start as early as Thursday, September 6, 2018.

Please round up your teams and email me (lindsaywatts07@gmail.com) with your roster and request for registration ASAP. I will post the week 1 schedule as soon as I have 8 teams confirmed.

As usual, I will do my best to give priority to returning teams, but regardless you still have to submit a request in order to get a spot. 

As far as length of season details go, here is what I know:
-Gym is available for us for Sept/Oct/Nov
-Basketball at ACSS is running this year so we do not yet know which nights will be needed for their home games
-Jan/Feb are undecided at the moment for availability
-March to June should be available to us again. 

I will post further details here as they become available to me!

Look forward to seeing you all for the upcoming fall season!

Hello,

Games start absolutely no later than 7pm, so please arrive on time.

Confirmed teams:

I recognize this league is short so payment will only be $40 per team ($10 per player) - cash or Etransfer please so that I can add it to the donation we give to the athletic program at ACSS every year. 

Look forward to seeing you all there!

-Linds

Week 1: Thursday, January 11, 2018

Hey Ladies, 
Welcome back to womens 6s volleyball! I hope after the holiday season everyone is itching to get back into the gymnasium!

A few housekeeping notes before you read further down for the schedule:

-PAYMENT before you play ($120.00 per team: cash or e-transfer Lindsaywatts07@gmail.com).

-Based on the feedback I rec'd we will continue this season playing all teams in your pool, 1 set to 31. 

-Be quiet and respectful of school programs upon arrival.

-Winter season timing/scheduling tends to be a bit trickier on my end due to basketball programs conflicting. Remember, we MUST be OUT of the gym by 945pm, if you decide to spend 10 minutes in between sets chit-chatting your final scores will likely reflect that as I will not hesitate to cut games short. 


-You must report your scores at the end of each match otherwise you will get a big fat zero!

All that being said, here is the schedule for week 1:

645pm - 8pm:
-Shanice
-Eliminators
-Marika
-Impact

815pm - 930pm:
-Lindsay
-Wei
-Danika
-I'd Hit That

One final note, I do have a couple more people who have expressed interest in playing so if you are looking for subs, or to complete a team here you go:
-Maddie Reardon 604-768-5448
-Natasja Van Rhee tashvr74@gmail.com - power/middle


Can't wait to get things rolling again! See you all Thursday!
-Linds

Upcoming Fall 2017 Season

Hey Everyone, 

Just a quick summer update:

-Womens 6s on Thursdays has been given the green light however, I do not yet have a confirmed start date. In the meantime, captains please message me (604-218-1202) to confirm your spot and team (I seem to have lots of outside interest so returning spots will not be held for long).

Co-ed Reverse 4s Spring 2017: Schedule, Rules, & Reminders

Hey Everyone, 

So sorry I didn't get these details out over the weekend - I was slacking! 

Better late than never though, so to start off, here's the SCHEDULE :

Thursday Co-ed R4s Spring 2017 League
Teams				Play		Sit
1. Watts		13-Apr-17		1, 2, 3, 4		5, 6
2. marika		20-Apr-17		2, 4, 5, 6		1, 3
3. Danica		27-Apr-17		1, 3, 5, 6		2, 4
4. Chantal		4-May-17		1, 3, 4, 5		6, 2
5. Shelby		11-May-17		1, 2, 3, 6		4, 5
6. Julia		18-May-17		2, 4, 5, 6		1, 3
		25-May-17		1, 3, 4, 6		2, 5
		1-Jun-17		1, 2, 4, 5		3, 6
		8-Jun-17		2, 3, 5, 6		4, 1
	flex week	15-Jun-17		1, 2, 3, 4		5, 6
	PLAYOFFS	22-Jun-17
		29-Jun-17

As far as the RULES go, here are a few reminders:
-No open hand tipping
-Men may only block men
-Men may not jump inside the 3 meter line during an offensive attack
-If a man is inside the 3 meter line while playing the ball in to the opponents court, it must cross the opponents 3 meter line (if the defensive team plays the ball though, it is still live)
-If a man is inside the 3 meter line and is playing the ball into the opponents court, it must have discernible arc. 
-If you are setting the ball over the net as an offensive attack, your shoulders, hips, and feet, must be square to where the ball lands. 

Aside from the regular volleyball rules, I think that is all for now. 

A couple HOUSEKEEPING items to note:
-Every week 2 teams will be sitting
-If there is a week that you would like to sit (ie short players), let me know asap and I will see if one of the other teams is willing to trade

-I only have the schedule listed until June 8, 2017 however, we have the gym until June 29, 2017. This allows for some "wiggle room" in case there is a last minute gym cancellation or something, and also allows for two weeks of playoffs so please expect to play until the end of June. 

-Team fee is $100 ($25 per person) - please bring it the first week you play, or you can send E-transfer in advance to lindsaywatts07@gmail.com
-If you have a player who has not played in a league with us at this facility previously they MUST sign the waiver form prior to participating!
-Gym doors open between 630-645pm (please be quiet and respectful upon arrival as there is a youth camp that runs prior to us), and games will start absolutely no later than 7pm

Please let me know if you have any comments or questions!

See you Thursday!
-Linds

P.s. For the two new teams joining us this season, if you are unfamiliar with Reverse 4s rules, please don't hesitate to ask questions throughout. Also, since you guys are sitting this first week, feel free to pop in anyway and watch if you want to get a feel for it prior to your first week!

Co-ed R4s Start Up Info

Hey Everyone,

I have all four R4s teams from last season confirmed at this time:
-Watts
-Marika
-Danica
-Chantal

I have had some further interest and am doing my best to try to decide what is the best why I could accommodate more teams, but still keeping a high caliber and amount of play time each week. 

I am considering making room for 1-2 more teams to join (Team Shelby, and Team Julia), but that means that each week 1-2 teams would have to sit. I have contacted the athletic coordinator at ACSS to find out just how many weeks we have left (that will most likely make the decision on whether teams are going to end up sitting for a week or two here and there).

I am hoping to make a decision by next week and confirm with those pending teams. 

Also, Rebecca Vane has offered that if any teams are looking for subs or extra players she is very interested. She played on team Marika last season. If you would like to get in touch with her please let me know and I will pass along her contact info. 

Thanks!
-Linds

Winter 2017 Update

Hey Ladies, 

Here are some updates:

I have eight teams confirmed for this winter 2017: 
-I'ts Big (Lindsay Watts)
-Sambuca (Danika Dvorak)
-Barely Legal (Shelby Dawn)
-I'd Hit That (Ashley Bowkett)
-Shanice Lee
-Impact (Celine Charbonneau)
-Eliminators (Taylor Kitteringham)
-Marika Togeretz

I have one team on the "wait list" that I would like to accommodate if possible:
-Sarah Rempel

If I do take a 9th team I would have to have 1 team sit every week, and with an already shorter season than usual I don't want you ladies to feel like you aren't getting enough play time. I'm hoping we will finish April 13 or 20th (including playoffs). Please let me know your thoughts? I know some teams are short players certain weeks, so maybe sitting once in a while might actually be an advantage?

Also, originally I was hoping to get started Thursday February 2, 2017 however, I have spoken with the athletic coordinator at ACSS and she informs me that there could potentially be another scheduling conflict. The gym may be taken by the basketball program on February 2 and 9th. She said she should know by January 28. If there is a conflict, she is going to try to see if she could give us Wednesday February 1 and 8th instead, but again there is no certainty yet.

I will keep you all posted as I find out more however, please be ready to play by early February :)

Thanks!
-Linds


P.s. I do plan to run Reverse 4s in the Spring 2017 until the end of the school year. 

Looking for Players?

If you are a player looking to join a team, or a team in search of some extra players, I will be updating this list as needed to provide contact info for players:

Susan Nazem 
-Preferred contact method: susan_nazem@hotmail.com
-Alternate contact method: 778 865 9309
-Level of Experience: Played until grade 12, also played drop-in for a few years during undergrad.



Thanks!
