Dang. If my sister-in-law was getting married a week later, I would be in Hawai'i at that time.

 
So when are they gonna decided "how to proceed" with the program? Don't get the point of adding a sport if you're not gonna compete in postseason

Because the sand season is like bowl practices and the spring season for football. Any contact between coaches and players can only benefit the program.

Exactly. This is a developmental league for us. Gets the girls playing more VB with the coaches involved in the off season.

 
At some point they're going to decide if we're going to keep the court team playing sand, or spin the sand program off into its own team and recruit specifically for sand. There are half a zillion problems with having a sand-only team, though.

 
I really don't understand how thats a difficult decision though. Keep the court teaming playing sand also. But give them the opportunity to compete for championships. Only benefits them.
