The team is set! Congratulations to all athletes who made it! The skill level this year impressed me a great deal, as did the maturity level. I am very excited to get the season started with this group!
To those who didn't quite make it, please know that every one of you at the tryout has the potential to be a very good volleyball player, and I highly encourage you to keep playing. I would love to come back next year and see you at Canada West tryouts again! If you're looking for a different club to try, I think the new Hitmen Volleyball Club is still looking for players for their teams (http://www.hitmenvolleyball.net). Hitt Volleyball also runs camps during the year that develop skills (http://www.hittvolleyball.com). There are no shortage of opportunities in this city to practice and play volleyball, so don't let this get you down, get out and keep playing!
The roster for the 2016/17 Canada West U14 Boys team is as follows:
2 - Alex Dong
4 - Spencer Drummond
6 - Nolan Edwards
9 - Reeve Gingera
12 - Lucas Jegen
13 - Tyler Jegen
14 - Osher Kizer
15 - Reid Larson
19 - Kyle Phillipson
20 - Justin Plett
22 - Michael Schell
23 - York Sidorenko
An email will be sent out to parents of those on the team with more information, but for now, practices are Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4:30 to 6:15, and Sundays from 4:00 to 6:00. First practice is tomorrow, December 6th. See you there!
Thank you all for giving me the chance to coach you at tryouts! It was a pleasure to meet so many excellent young men.
