VOLLEYBALL

Avery has been waiting for volleyball!

She has looked forward to playing for a few years and now the time has come!

She is playing at the Boys and Girls Club.

Her coach is a student at WWU named Dakota.

There are a couple of girls Avery knows on the team (Alice and Leah), but the rest of the girls all go to different schools.  It's a combined 5th and 6th grade team.

 There was definitely a learning curve!

There wasn't a lot of volleying at the beginning.

And it's actually quite difficult to serve the ball over the net for most of these girls.

They definitely improved throughout the season...

Avery really enjoyed it and will definitely play again next fall!

At the end of season party, her coach praised Avery for being so positive and 

always having a good attitude and encouraging her teammates.  

Way to go Avery!
