After a long silence, here are some bits and pieces of volleyball news from last term!

 

Roses 2009 was another victory for York, we beat Lancaster by a 115-point margin! See this Nouse article for more information about Roses 2009. The volleyball teams did quite well too, with convincing wins for our mixed team as well as the men's team, and a good fight put up by the women's team against the strong Lancaster team.

 

Another volleyball weekend in May constituted President's weekend 2009. It was a fun weekend full of volleyball and socializing and a beautiful dinner at the Hilton hotel. Many congratulations to this year's award winners: Lisa Breitschuh (player of the year and most valuable player at president's weekend), Janette Chow (most improved player), Janis Koknevics (player of the year and most improved player), and Ben Brown (most valuable player at president's weekend).

 

The summer is coming, and there have been many beach volleyball tournaments to show it. Quite a few of our players participated in one or all of them: the Beach Volleyball Student Cup in Bournemouth (30 & 31 May), the beach volley tournament in Whitby (14 June), the tournament in Bridlington (4 & 5 July), and coming up is the York VolleyFest at York College (12 July). Clearly, there have been enough opportunities to play volleyball in the sun, and some of our players managed to go quite far in these tournaments. 

 

We had elections in the beginning of June to bring in a new committee for 2009/2010. Positions elected were:

Congratulations to the new committee!
