Anna and Kate both participated in the volleyball/soccer tournament this year. The kids practice for two months leading up to the tournament, then they play for three days, and then it's over. Kate was technically too young for the games, but they allow us to draft younger players if we don't have enough kids to play. It is amazing how our school does every year. We have the smallest school, with the smallest kids (in number and size), we practice outside in the courtyard on a not real court/field, and then the kids come out and do super! Our teams did great. In volleyball, our Sr girls (kids 14 and up) got 1st, our Jr boys (ages 13 and down) got 2nd, and our Jr girls got 3rd. We had eight girls on our Jr team and two of them were 9 years old playing against 13 year olds. They got 3rd (with one of our oldest girls not being able to be there for the 3rd place game!)! In soccer, our Sr girls got 2nd, our Jr boys took 3rd, and our Jr girls were 4th. The Jr girls only had one girl that played last year. Rachel got to coach the Jr boys and girls volleyball teams and be an assistant for the Sr girls volleyball team. It was such a fun weekend, but everyone was exhausted after it was over. They played four or five games every day, came home and ate dinner, showered, and then went to bed. Such a fun weekend!
