UTC Washington Park Pickup Volleyball


UTC Washington Park Pickup Volleyball

4 PM until Dark

LOCATION:

We meet in the middle of Wash Park ( rectangle ) just in from Downing & Tennessee and close to the kids playground. Look for the Up The Creek cardboard sign. Look for us every Wed weather permitting till late Sept.

 
EVENT COORDINATOR:   Kevin Trinkus - Call me if you are lost on my cell phone # (303) 829-2135.  We also do 1 of the weekend days at different parks in the Denver Metro with DeKoevend Park as our every other Saturday home base all summer long.  These events are communicated via email only so if you are interested in Weekend Volleyball - give me a call, text or email ktrinkaus@comcast.net

We always welcome all ability levels & all age groups and never charge a fee. However, we do require the desire to play 3 Hit Volleyball Skills as explained below. The organizers of this event bring several nets to help satisfy all ability levels. However, if you bring your own net you are welcomed to dictate the level of play that you are interested in playing and you may choose your own players as you desire. We are a very friendly social group and want everybody to fit in to their ability level and have a pleasant experience. We will help new players as best we can to help them develop 3 Hit Volleyball Skills on a specific net if feasible. If you are new to this group, please introduce yourself to the organizers, and we will do our best to help you fit into this group.

Highly recommended items to bring are lawn chair, ball cap, suntan lotion, and bottled water. 

 

Remember, this is 3 hit volleyball ( Bump, Set, Spike ) as oppose to Jungleball. We will train newcomers if they are not familiar with these skills.. 

 

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, 3 X 3,and 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" !!!
