Volleyball Jollies

22 February 2013
The Junior Club Volleyball team travelled to Burnaby this past weekend to play in a Super Series tournament.  This was the team’s first tournament and it ended in a success.  Led by two fabulous coaches, Ms. Fougner and Mr. Minckler, and incredible, supportive Co–Captains Hannah C and Lauren H, the team ended up placing second. This was a great way to end the two-day tournament full of teamwork, sweat, and, of course, love for the game.  

Playing a total of eight games, the team won four and lost four, playing hard and learning from mistakes made.  Playing new positions and learning with every point, the girls continued to develop and grow into better players and a better team. Coming up against hard teams who have played together for years, Brentwood rose to the challenge and defeated three teams in a row, one of which had beat them in the round robin the day before.  

With great serves, passes, sets and hits thrown into the game, there was not a single boring moment. All were filled with intensity. Playing through fatigue and hunger, the girls fought until the very end. With the long, fatiguing weekend coming to a close, the team loaded onto the bus to head back to campus, reflecting happily on every aspect of the weekend, from travelling, playing and, of course, the creation of memories through team bonding.
