I am still looking for a couple more volunteers to participate in a practice session at Sacred Heart in Halifax on February 14th from 1:00pm to 4:00pm. The practice sesssion is being conducted as part of the Level 2 Coaching Clinic being held at the school. The coaches attending the course need players to perform the drills assigned by the teaching staff. This is a great opportunity to be coached by various other coaches.
If you are interested please email me at u16girls@lakersvolleyball.org before Friday February 12th, 2010.

I am sad to report that the Lakers will not be fielding a U18 women’s team this winter. Please check back in Oct. 09 as we plan to start early next season.

The Lakers will be holding tryouts for a U18 girls team this coming Friday, January 9th at Ellenvale Jr. High from 8-10 PM Cole Harbour District High School from 6pm till 8pm (but be prepared to stay a little longer if needed) and Saturday from 12 to 2pm at Carrefour.
If you plan on attending it is very important that you pre-register. (See “Register” link at top right).
We are tight for time, so once we have this tryout on Friday and we have enough girls, we’ll need your parents to send in the registration money and uniform deposit ASAP. Don’t have your parents send anything in until we are 100% certain we can field at team.
The requirements to be on this team are:
1. You must commit to practice times. For now 1 practice time will be Friday’s at Ellenvale Jr. High from 8-10 pm. We are working on another time, which could be a Sat or Sun afternoon at Carrefour or even Tues nights (Nothing is confirmed yet).
2. You must commit to tournaments and provincials. If you have a part-time job and work weekends, then this is not the team for you. You must be available to play in all tournaments the team goes in to. If you have family commitments, and can’t make a tournament, that is a different story.
3. You have to agree to
the Club Policies and you and your parents must sign that document.
We hope to see you all out this Friday and Saturday!

Metro Lakers (Wayne) win the first tournament of the season at the Bedford Blizzard Tournament with a perfect 5-0 record. Lakers defeated the Valley Waves in the final 25-16, 16-25, 15-11.
Congratulations go out to setter Ashley Tawell, who was named tournament MVP! More congrats to tournament all-stars Taylor Conrad and Brittney MacMillan.
Congratulations also go out the Lakers (Wesson) team who fought back from being 10 points down in the second set, then down game serve (19-24) to come back and win the second set 26-24 against the host Bedford Bizzard. They continued to come from behind in the 3rd to win the 3rd place match 16-25, 26-24, 15-13. Way to show the Laker fighting spirit girls! Congratulations also to Katherine Hudgins for being named a tournament all-star.
