From Coach Walker:
**MS Girls' Volleyball Practice will start August 26th @ 5:30-7:30pm** All 7th & 8th grade girls are invited to join! Remember that all athletes need a sports physical before they can practice. Just bring it with you on the first day! After practice, there will be a quick mandatory parent meeting.
Practice/game schedules will be given out on that first day as well, but please plan on Aug. 27th-29th after school until 5:30 in Johannesburg with an activity bus returning to Lewiston like usual.
We are welcoming a new coach to our middle school program, Coach Butterfield, who will be coaching our 8th grade girls this year! We are looking forward to a great season. See everyone the 26th!
Let me know if you have any questions. Please also spread the word to any other 7th and 8th grade girls who may be interested in playing this year. Thanks!
