Congratulations to all the EVJ players who participated in the state tournament! Semi-final and final match videos are available at www.aia365.com. Concussion EducationWith the blessing of the NFL, the state of Arizona passed a concussion law that was signed into law last April. As a result all athletes and their parents must be educated in the signs, symptoms and what to do if you have a concussion. Coaches must also be trained regarding the same. In order to use school facilities for our programs and our tournaments we must comply with this new law. As a result the Arizona Region requires that each parent and player read their respective CDC Fact Sheet on Concussions and sign an Acknowledgement Form indicating they understand the signs, symptoms and what to do if they think they have a concussion. The Acknowledgement form is to be turned in to EVJ. EVJ Coaching AdditionsEast Valley Juniors is proud to announce the addition of Myles Gabel (former collegiate coach for USC, New Mexico State, and San Diego State) and Teri Schroeder (former Collegiate All-American and women’s professional indoor and outdoor setter) to our 13/14-under program and EVJ family. Myles will be the Master Coach for the 13/14 age-group and in charge of training the athletes in a college-prep style. Teri will head the top 13-Mizuno team as well as help run the college-prep setters’ specialty training at EVJ. Welcome Myles and Teri!

Ways to help:
Thank you to all of the families who donated to the Sperry Residence garage sale and to all of the individuals who helped make the garage sale a huge success last Saturday. What an amazing turnout! Thank YouThank you to all of the people at Court One on Saturday, March 5th, who came to the aid of one of our EVJ grandfathers. Certainly the quick and professional action of several individuals and the community as a whole saved a life. Mr. O'Dell underwent double bypass surgery on Tuesday afternoon and is doing very well. "Grandpa" has two granddaughters playing at EVJ and has been in the volleyball community for many, many years! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to all who stepped in! (We would greatly appreciate names of the heroes who helped Mr. O'Dell--If you were one of them or know someone, please email Jen Leo at JENLEO@COX.NET)
Thank you to these heroes:
If anyone has noteworthy news, accomplishments, etc., send them to Jen Leo at JENLEO@COX.NET and we will get something posted on the website. |
