Just in from Seattle Volleyball Association – a clinic this Saturday with your chance to “learn from the best”:

By popular demand, the best players in the Northwest will be taking a day off from playing a tournament and running a beach volleyball clinic to allow anyone a chance to learn from the best. All levels are welcome, whether you’re just starting to play or wanting to brush up your skills. The Northwest’s professional and semi-pro players will help players with passing, setting, hitting and serving, then have the nets open for all players to practice their skills against other players of their same skill level. The event goes 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. with open net play for all participants who want to practice their skills with instructors from 2 to 4 p.m. The cost for each participant is $25 per person.

    This isn’t being produced by the Alki Volleyball Association, this clinic is being produced by the Seattle Volleyball Association! The “AVA” has no professional players on staff.

    The website doesn’t have an official organization name displayed prominently – might be good to say Seattle Volleyball Association on the home page if that’s the official name? – and the links in the copy we received all say Alki Volleyball, so that’s where that came from. Nonetheless, have changed – TR

    I like this picture. If you look at just right, it looks like a woman laying in the sand realizing she’s about to be hit by a volleyball.
