Forecast a week out says warm 80s but it may rain this afternoon. I may cancel if it's wet - I don't want people slipping and falling.
Planning on setting up at the soccer fields near the baseball parking lot at Heritage Park. Exact location may vary depending on how dry the grass is. If you're having trouble finding us, I'd use the address: 48300 Heritage Park Rd, Canton, MI 48188. We'll be West of the North Pavilions, or East of the Baseball fields if that helps.
I have a single net and a couple of beach balls. If there are only 5 or 4 people signed up, I personally am prepared to play doubles but I know not everyone is comfortable with that. I only have 1 net though so I'm capping attendance at 14.
PLEASE PING ME IF YOU HAVE DOG ALLERGIES/AVERSIONS. I may bring my dog out if she's been well-behaved but will not if you don't want that for any reason.
BEGINNERS WELCOME. I can run other more specialized events on other dates but for now I want to be open to everyone. If you ARE a beginner I'll probably be giving you a pointer or 2 after every set - please be open to feedback, I'm not trying to single you out or put you down.
Rules:
-
Don't be a butt. The only prize you get for winning are high fives from the other team. The consolation prize will be the exact same thing. Be cool.
-
I haven't paid a ref. There is no one who is gonna hold you to a high standard with doubles, net touches, lifts, not passing to teammates, etc. If you want to get better at volleyball you should hold yourself to those standards though.
-
Be open and friendly. There are a lot of great people in this group that just wanna vibe after work. Be ready for positivity, encouragement, and constructive criticisms.
See you out there!
