After School Yoga

The girls were all excited for the time between school and the soccer/volleyball games.  Last game, they rolled out the yoga mats and had 'exercise class' while they waited and they couldn't wait to do it again.  This time, it was even more organized.  They lined up the mats, had two 'instructors' who sat on yoga balls and said yoga catchphrases.  Then they found the resistance bands I bought to tie to the desks as footrests (it didn't work, they kept slipping down, so I shoved them in the podium).  Boy they had a hay day with them!  They stretched their arms and feet and legs and all sorts of stuff.  Annnd rushed out of the room for the soccer game without putting most of it away. However, they did put everything back before they went home tonight, so there's that.

The volleyball games went pretty well, we played the Northrup/Truman/Fairmont team (they have to combine three schools together to have enough girls).  The A games were intense!  We won the match though.  We lost both B games, but they played really well.  And there was not that much drama either.

The next big thing is the A squad vb tournament on Saturday.  Only one coach will be there (I have my sand volleyball tournament this weekend) and it turns out two of our star players have a wedding to go to and will only be able to stay until 11.  We play at 10.  Their mom doesn't want to drive two hours for them to only play a one hour game.  So I emailed the tournament director to see if our games could be moved earlier so they can play in both.  It's a long shot.  If they don't change it, the two girls won't go and we'll only have five players at the tournament.  The A coach kind of wants to pull out of the tournament if that happens, but I'm not so sure if we should... I guess we'll have to see what he says about switching us earlier.
