WINTER VOLLEYBALL
Saturday Combined Open Play/Clinics

Volleyball Magazine has just recognized us as the premier league in America! We believe that with this honor comes an obligation to teach all New Yorkers to better enjoy our great sport.

We now offer, Beginner, Intermediate and occasionally Advanced, Saturday afternoon Combined Open Play/Clinics for the UNBELIEVABLE PRICE of $12.00 for a 3 hr. Session!

An Open Play/Clinic! What’s that? …………... It is our new creation! Three hours of Open Play and Clinic combined! Here’s how it works. 3 teams of 8 players each alternate playing games on one of our main courts at Brandeis H.S. (84th st. bet Columbus & Amsterdam) Now get this, while the third team is out, instead of sitting around, that team gets a clinic (8 players to one coach) on one of the back courts at Brandeis with a top instructor. When the two teams finish their game on the main court, one comes off for instruction. Meanwhile, the players that just received instruction take what they just learned and use it in the next game. This rotation continues for 3 hrs! It is an absolutely unbelievable deal!

    TIMES AND FACILITIES

    Each team will play 10matches. Matches begin the week of January 9th and continue for the next ten. The top four teams in each division make the playoffs which conclude in late March.

    Following the divisional playoffs we have the QUADS, Interdivisional Playoffs for the winners of each division. The QUADS are broken down by levels, four divisions per level. The QUADS are great because they give you the opportunity to see how your team performs against other divisions.

    Matches, including warmups, take approximately one hour and fifteen minutes; not one hour, like other leagues. Teams play once a week.

    Match nights vary from Monday to Thursday each week, Starting times vary among 6:30, 7:45, and 9:00 p.m. Scheduling problem? Let us know at the start of the season. We will make you happy.
