Volleyball Playday in Franklin

Rebecca tried out and made the Greenbrier Middle School volleyball team this past June. They had a 3 day camp in mid-July followed by 5 days a week practice. She was thrilled to be one of the few 6th graders that made the teams, especially since she is the smallest & the youngest.

Coach Clark is a great coach - non-nonsense and tough, but man, she's great. We had an all day long volleyball "play day" in Franklin in early August. We played back to back games, alternating the "A team" (varsity) and the "B team" (Jr varsity) from 9am to 5pm. It was a long day but it was a great opportunity for the girls to get some real match experience before the season began.
