Spring Volleyball

Rebecca played volleyball again this spring on a local recreational team. This is the same place she played in the fall for the first time. We were a little worried at the beginning since our team didn't have a coach but after a couple of practices, one mom and one dad stepped up and agreed to coach. Typically, there is one practice a week until games start and then there are only the games. But our coaches wanted an additional practice. It was amazing to see how much better the girls played on Tuesday nights after a Monday practice, especially since only 3 of the 8 girls on the team had ever played before. We saw huge improvement with the girls and it was a very positive season. Way to go, Spicy Chicks!!

After diving for the ball....

Rebecca really learned to serve well this season and by the end was consistently getting her serve over!

Rebecca also began to bump the ball extremely well & was a valuable player on her team

I think it's funny how far off the ground she is!

This is Cassidy, who was on Rebecca's team last season. They played against each other this year and had fun teasing each other.

When the season was over, the girls signed each other's shirts. This is funny - Rebecca sandwiched between the twins on her team!
