Welcome to the Chapel Hill Panthers Volleyball Page!  All information regarding tryouts, practices, and camps can be found below.  Please don't hesitate to contact one of the coaches if you have any questions.

Tryouts:
     Tryouts will be held on May 6-10, 2019, from 4-6 pm each day.  In order to try out, you must have a completed, up-to-date physical on file at the school.  All physicals are valid for one calendar year, and please check if your last physical is within that time-frame.  All forms should be given to Coach Spoor.
     For tryouts, please come with proper attire and a water bottle, along with a positive attitude.  We will work on fundamentals the first two days, and begin evaluations on the third day.  As we may have players new to the sport, we will be teaching skills at the beginning and work our way up to performing.  For this reason, no cuts will be made at this time.  Spots will be chosen for the team, up to a maximum of 20 of the 24 available slots.  Slots will be kept open so we can note improvement or if we have transfers to the school.  Final cuts will be made on July 30, with final tryout dates being July 29 and 30.  Please plan accordingly to make yourself available at that time.  The season's official practices begin the last Monday in July, and everyone on the team is expected to be there.  

Summer Camp
     We will be hosting a summer camp the week after school ends, May 28-31.  This will be a team camp for returning varsity players, and a skills camp on the other court.  It will be run by the staff and WGVA coaches.  This is open to all players, including middle school athletes who wish to learn the sport.  It is highly advisable to attend, both for returning and new players.  The cost will be $100, and will include a camp t-shirt, drinks, a pizza party on Friday, and awards at the end of the week.  The times will be 4-8 pm from Tuesday-Thursday, and Friday morning, 8-12 noon, with the pizza party and awards at the end.  Come on out, play some volleyball, learn a little, and have some fun!

Summer Schedule
     There will be no workouts at the school in June, unless something comes up.  This is Coach Spoor's travel time, and he will be mostly unavailable.  If you want to go hiking to waterfalls, it's a bet that he'd appreciate the company, so let him know. 
     In July, summer workouts commence.  We will begin on July 8th, practicing Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays until the last week.  The time will be 9-11 am.  We will use that time to work on skills and play each day.  Again, please try to make as many of these workouts as possible, since we can set up our offense and defense at this time.  

Fall Schedule
    The schedule is 90% set at this point.  The schedule dates are complete, but not all opponents are set.  I have put a schedule in the schedule section. 
 One note- we are planning on a trip to Sevierville, TN for the Rocky Top Tournament on September 13-14.  This is a Friday-Saturday tournament and we will be staying overnight.  We will need chaperones, and there will be an additional cost for the hotel.  When information is complete, it will be sent to all players and parents.  This will surely be a trip to remember!
