A Message for New Families Interested in Volleyball

July 8, 2014

The Vermont Commons Flying Turtles Volleyball team is hoping to introduce you to the sport of volleyball, VCS’ sports culture, and a lot of other VCS students & teachers. Our volleyball team is co-ed, and includes seventh through twelfth graders. Our practices run after school, September – November. We also run a week of practices before the first day of school, a great way to get to know many of your classmates. Volleyball is a new sport to Vermont, and VCS has led the way for more than a decade. We do not make athletic ‘cuts’, and recognize that many families have transportation conflicts with practices. Last year, more than a third of the school played on the team, with a dozen players new to VCS! We assume you have little to no experience in volleyball, and hope that you just come out and give it a try. Vermont Commons is also the founding school of the Vermont Youth Volleyball Association (see links below), which promotes and runs events during the summer. Please contact Coach Peter Goff (pgoff@vermontcommons.org) with any questions…looking forward to seeing you on the court!
