Good coed, pickup volleyball Monday evenings in upper Georgetown / Glover Park.  Advance reservations are not required; just show up. Teams are formed on the spot. Optional beer and pizza  (or other items on the menu) after volleyball at Froggy Bottom Pub, 2021 K Street, NW.

We meet almost every Monday evening throughout the indoor season with the exception of Memorial Day and Labor Day.  We are no longer playing outdoors during the summer months.

Location:

We have three nets at Jelleff Community Center, 3265 “S” Street, NW, just a half a block off Wisconsin Avenue.  We play Mondays, starting from 6:45 p.m. until 9:00 p.m.  $5 for Ski Club members, $8 for non-members. No bills over $20 accepted. There is an ATM on Wisconsin Ave. half a block away.

Parking:  Free parking in the lot at Jelleff.  Right when we start, a lot of soccer parents are picking up their young players, so the parking lot tends to be full until 7:15 p.m.  If you arrive earlier than that, just park on “S” Street away from the parking meters – it’s a two-hour zone.  This is a very safe neighborhood.

With Ski Club volleyball, you will typically play more games per evening than in most leagues.  We have two levels of play:  intermediate and advanced. This is not “picnic volleyball.” We play by the rules.  Play on our advanced court is often fierce. They tend to play 5/1 volleyball with a three-person attack on the front line.(See playing advice below.)

Leaders:  John Henrehan, johnhenrehan@yahoo.com, or Ira Silvergleit, irates@verizon.net.  Questions?  Hit us before Monday evening, because we’ll be playing volleyball!

Ability Level / Having Fun?
Can you bump?  Can you set?  If your answers are “yes”, try our intermediate court.  Rusty players are welcome. We''ll give you a few tips to get you going.
