Volleyball

Monday night I went to Parmelee park with Melany, Bethany, and Mandy to teach pre-teen aged girls volleyball.  There was a wide range of skill levels.  I spent a while teaching one girl how to bump.  I helped an eighth-grader work on her setting form.

Tuesday night in Parmelee, no girls came.  Sad.  Instead we played a game with a bunch of younger kids.  It was a lot of fun.  One girl brought her puppy, so I held it.

Today, I worked with a girl on bumping and then setting.  She can now tell me what she did wrong when her set is off.  Seeing your error is the first step to getting better!  She was setting really well for a good amount of time!  Then we all played a game.  It started out 4 on 5.  Then more kids from the community joined.  Then we had some spectators.  Then I almost hit a horse with a volleyball...I was trying to save it...oops!  After the net was taken down, Mandy and I stayed for a bit.  We hung out with Glen, a couple girls visiting South Dakota from Illinois, and a boy I met at the zombie lock-in.  It was good!

It was a lot of fun spending the time in Parmelee and playing volleyball.
