Volleyball at Berkeley High
August 2010
Hi,
My daughter is just starting at BHS and interested in volleyball. We
know date for tryouts but
know nothing about the degree of skill /experience required. How
competitive is it to get in?
Anybody know? Anybody doing practice games over next few weeks.
Thanks
BHS Girls Volleyball is competitive but my daughter who played
volleyball at BHS for four years says the most important quality for a
player to have is ''coachability.'' I suppose that means if your
daughter is athletic, has a strong desire to learn and improve her
skills she may not necessarily need to have a lot of volleyball
experience. Many of the girls who play on all three volleyball teams
have had at least some experience through volleyball camps and/or club
volleyball teams or playing at their middle school prior to entering
BHS.
If your daughter really wants to play and doesn't make it on the team
this Fall I would encourage her to try out for a club team in the late
Fall so she can play the Spring club season (January to May). She can
also go to volleyball camp next summer and try out again next year.
Go Yellow Jackets!
