Creekers & Friends ( Ladies & Gents ),
UTC Wash Park Pickup Volleyball -
We meet in the middle of Wash Park ( rectangle ) just in from
Downing & Tennessee
Great turnout last week with a great mix of people. No rain will
hinder this hardy group. We were able to get multiple nets going
with all kinds of games ranging from 2 X 3 ~ 6 X 6. Thanks to Gary's
youth group for sparking the scene. This go around, 84 Sunny Degrees
and low winds.
Spring V-Ball is finally here so let it all out and shine !!! Let's
rival that mid-summer night's dream.
Come play and join in with the Awesome Wash Park Scene ( multiple
nets for sure )
Lets continue on a roll with the V-Ball Fun !!! never be a dull
moment on the Green Grass Knoll. We should have a few
nets to get the games rolling. The UTC sign will be by the nets as
well. Please be prompt as we would like to get the games rolling
ASAP. We are anticipating a good turnout as Spring Fever is alive
and well. We meet in the middle of Wash Park ( rectangle ) just in
from Downing & Tennessee near the large playground and at the corner
of the famous oak trees where we have been meeting for years. We
locate about 50 – 70 Yards east of the playground out in the open
field. This is near all the other V-Ball Nets that exists each week.
Just look for the Doo Dah Man and we will have a UTC Sign visible.
Try my cell # 303-829-2135 if you are lost or on the wrong net.
Catch the V-Ball Fever !!! Round up a Buddy and stroll on in for the
V-Ball fun and the awesome spring fever seen throughout Wash Park.
Each week we get new Creekers show up so it is very interesting week
to week. Some of the folks come to socialize and that is really
cool. Some weeks, we get a variety of games in that entail
2's,3's,4's,5's,6's. Feel free to bring non-members, family, and
friends. If you have a volleyball, please bring it so we have extra
balls for practicing skills.
As long as weather
conditions are dry, low winds, and above 55 Degrees we will be there
ready to play. If the weather is iffy, we will wait it out for at
least an hour since spring rains often come and go quickly. We would
like players to be on time this year and break our tardy habits of
the past. We need help setting up the nets and we need to respect
everybody’s time so players do not have to wait around. Of course we
always welcome temporary last minute stragglers and those folks who
can only come for part of the time. The socializing is just as
important as the Volleyball so any Non-Players who want to join our
group are welcomed as well. Feel free to bring other games, frisbees,
bikes, lawn chairs, coolers with libations, music, and great jokes.
Be sure to bring plenty of water and other libations to hydrate.
Our goal is to satisfy all ability levels and get all interested
players who show up involved in the action. If the turnout is light,
of course it is okay to mix all types of ability levels on the same
net. Like last year we would like to continue multiple nets for
different ability levels. With 3 nets, we should be able to
accommodate all ability levels assuming the turnout is large enough
and varied as such:
Advanced Net - 3 Hit Volleyball ( Bump, Set, Spike ) at all times.
This net would encompass those with proficient skills. Players in
this category need to take the initiative to setup this net and make
it happen. This net can consist of player teams ranging from 2 X 2 ~
4 X 4. Advanced players who have been playing for years are looking
for this type of volleyball.Intermediate Net - 3 Hit Volleyball (
Bump, Set, Spike ) recommended. This net would encompass those with
average skills. Players in this category need to take the initiative
to setup this net and make it happen.
Beginner Net - 3 Hit Volleyball ( Bump, Set, Spike ) recommended.
This net would encompass those learning the skills. Players in this
category need to take the initiative to setup this net and make it
happen.
Courtesy Rules:
Call the score before each serve so that all players can hear.
After each play is over roll the ball back to the server on the
ground gently.
If you interfere with the net by touching it with your body please
say that you netted and the play will be dead and serve will go to
the other team.
Kicking the ball over the net is allowed as long as it is a soft
attempt out of desperation.
Net serves are only good when playing 4 X 4 or greater.
Come out to an awesome venue where the sights are plentiful and
awesome V-Ball games await your participation !!! Most importantly,
bring your Ferrets since they deserve open space and clean city air.
Let’s continue this great UTC Tradition !!! This has always been a
lot of fun for Creekers over the years and we look forward to seeing
you guys out on the green grassy knoll real soon for some "Good Ole
Urban Fun" !!!
Thanks,
Doo Dah
