Frog Volleyball
As this school year comes to an end, we are looking forward to starting next year off right. The first step in creating a positive high school experience is to become involved on campus. The volleyball season starts the first week of school, and the team invites you to join the action.
Why Should I Play? Studies show that participation in athletics has a positive association with academic achievement. High school athletes were found to have higher GPAs than non-athletes, lower absentee levels, a significantly smaller percentage of discipline referrals, lower percentages of dropout, and higher graduation rates. Student athletes report healthier eating habits, increased parental support, and decreased anxiety and depression. Studies have also shown that there is a positive association between participating in school sports and lower rates of drug and alcohol use. Participating in sports is associated with higher levels of self-esteem and motivation and overall psychological well-being.
What do I need to do to play? To start the season, each player needs to have a physical, birth certificate, proof of insurance, athletic handbook acknowledgment, and drug/emergency procedures form turned in to the office. All forms are available in the district office at Salome HS. In addition to these forms, athletes also must pay $1 to participate in the sport.
What equipment do I need to play? Each player needs to be prepared for practice with the proper gym shoes, a pair of knee pads, and appropriate attire (shorts and t-shirt).

We are looking forward to a great season this fall! In order to get off to a great start, there are a few summer activities available for our players.
Team camp attendance will depend on having enough interest in the camp.
The league will run for 4 weeks on Tuesday nights (5, 6:15, and 7:30pm match times). We can
choose to participate in June, July, or both. Each Tuesday, we would play in 2 (best of 5) matches.
