Things are coming to a head here at We Serve First Headquarters! With a very busy couple of days ahead, I think it’s time that we fill you all in on the schedule of events. First, the location… Kiski Area High School, Hyde Park Road, Leechburg, PA 15656
Once you get to the high school, the gym is in the back of the campus. Look for the light standards for the football stadium. Park in the area near the tennis courts. By that time on a Friday night, we should have the facility to ourselves.
Let’s start with Friday.
draft board
All participants should arrive at the high school gym(main gym) by 5:45pm. Practice shirts will be handed out along with presold tee-shirts and tickets. Our athletes will then be guided through a light workout by Hampton Head Coach Dakota Fickes and Kiski Asst. Coach Robin Joyce. Our team coaches, Rachel Carter(purple), Meghan Lucas(gold), Eve Hebrank(orange) and Tom Phillips(royal) will use this time to assess the players and prepare for the draft. At 7:45, the players will break for a pizza party while our coaches head to the draft room to select their teams. We will announce the team rosters and give the coaches a chance to work out their line-ups before heading home for the night.
Pool schedule
Saturday the doors open at 3:00(tickets are $5 for Adults and $3 for students) and the plan is to have introductions and pre-event announcements at 3:30. Pool play will start shortly thereafter. We’ll play 2-15 point games, with all teams playing each other once, then seed the teams in brackets to determine a champion!
Between pool play and playoffs, we’ll take a short break to get a bite to eat, draw the winners of our gift baskets and 50/50, and have a fun serving contest. Then it’s back to the action!
First round of the playoffs will be one game to 25, and the championship match will be best of three, first two games to 25, third game, if needed will be to 15…
Pool Play
After this we will have an awards presentation, with best defensive player, best setter, best hitter, and MVP(as judged by a panel of coaches) along with the Teammate Award, voted on by the players.
It is our hope that we can present a first class event that volleyball players and their families will enjoy this year, and future senior athletes will want to be a part of for years to come. We can’t wait to see you all on Saturday, whether you are in a game jersey, or in an ugly Christmas sweater!
