Hello Volleyball players & parents - Welcome to the 2022 spring volleyball season! My name is Andrea Berton, and along with assistant coach Kasra Toosi, I'll be coaching the 6th Grade House Purple team this spring. After a few years off (I was living in another country), I’m excited to be coaching for McLean Youth Volleyball again.
First, practice and match details - our practices will be at Churchhill Road ES on Thursdays from 6:00-7:30 pm. Our first practice will be on March 24th; please let me know as soon as possible if you have a conflict so I can plan practice accordingly. Our matches will be on Saturdays (or possibly Sundays) starting in mid-April (after FCPS spring break), and you'll get reminders for each of those.
I will be asking each of you what your personal goals are for the season so that we can ensure that we are helping you to develope as a player this season. My goal for our team is to have fun while gaining foundational volleyball skills and learning to be good teammates. Whether you have lots of volleyball experience or have never played the game before, we will work together to gain skills and knowledge of the game. The teamwork aspect of volleyball is crucial – and we will focus on how to back each other up on and off the court.
Volleyball is truly a sport for life. I hope you enjoy this season so much you will play through middle school, high school and beyond. The court can be a place to meet new people and connect with old friends no matter where you go.
Any questions, please let me know. I look forward to meeting everyone on Thusday and getting the season going!
Coach Andrea
