Western Mass Volleyball Club
Western Mass Club members,
This morning the New England Region Club Directors met in an online session. I wish I could tell you we came away with a clear path of what comes next. The fact is the region, USA Volleyball and clubs are making day to day decisions as the situation changes. The Governer of Massachusetts extending "stay at home" policies. With the day to day changes, it makes it difficult to commit to any one path.
I would like to remind everyone that this club was founded for YOU. It belongs to YOU. Your coaches and administrators are essentially volunteers being reimbursed for expenses. No one received a paycheck at Western Mass Volleyball Club (stipends only).
That being said I want to thank all of the Western Mass coaches for their hard work and dedication to coaching YOU. They come to practices early and stay late. They are always there to help every player in the Western Mass club.
Stay safe and healthy,
Roxann and Andy

WHAT PARENTS ARE SAYING ABOUT OUR CLUB
"I wanted to thank you and all of your coaches from this summer's beginner program. It was my daughter's first experience with any organized coaching and it was amazing. It was first class coaching. My daughter tried out for, and make her schools JV team. I really appreciated how the coaches gave each person individual attention and encouraged everyone regardless of their physical ability.
