(06/02/14) New Year!
(08/08/13)Reminder: Our Field permit runs out after 08/15/13. I have not yet applied for another from the town. What I am considering instead, is to move the group to my backyard. There is plenty of street parking. We haven't had enough people to warrant a second net yet, anyway. I would also open up playing from Tuesday/Thursdays to any day of the week (weekends included). Just use the sign-up list as always. You are also free to use the email list to plead your case for playing on any particular day! Feed back welcome. If you prefer to continue to play at Walsh, let me know and I'll apply for a field permit through the end of September. (06/25/13) Attendance: Attendance is way off recently. We've been cancelling during some great playing weather. This kinda makes it not worth it to play. I know I'm not getting my exercise.... I also know that vacations, other leagues, and injuries are getting in the way as well. Please don't make me search for other opportunities to play volleyball. Sign up early, sign up often, tell your friends and help them sign up too. (05/17/13) Field Permit: Parks & Recreation emailed me today to tell me that the field permit is ready to be signed and picked up. I hereby declare Framingham Outdoor Volleyball open for business! I'll pick it up next week and have it ready for Thursday 05/23/13.

Use of the Hands outdoor:
This is a link to an interesting article on what constitutes legal vs illegal use of the hands in outdoor volleyball. This video is an example of an illegal contact. The guy teaching it even says so. Please be aware of these techniques when you play with us. |

WARNING! the above core teams are subject to change as players are or are not available!
How to signup
If you'd like to play in a team tournament, send some email. . I'll even help organize a second team if there is enough interest!Uniforms
Most outdoor tournaments have no uniform requirements (to the best of my knowledge), but check with the tournament director to be sure!Yankee indoor tournaments require that each player on a roster have a numbered shirt (both front and back). The numbers are supposed to to unique on the roster, and be at least 4" on the front and 6" on the back. (6" on the front and 8" on the back are recommended!) My idea was for us, as a "team" to select a shirt style from the Spike Nashbar catalog, add some wording to it (like FRAMINGHAM, or Framingham Outdoor, FOG, or other some such wording, and then also have each person who wants one to add their number to their order. In that way, I'll get some of my T-Shirts back, and everyone who plays with us can have a unique number such that we can put any combination of us on a team at the same time.
We can either order some very nice shirts (for about $30 plus printing), or we can choose to order cheaper T-Shirts plus printing, OR we can buy REALLY cheap t-shirts ($3.33 apeice @ A. C. Moore) and put numbers and maybe a design on them ourselves (~$1 per 8.5x11 transfer page). Please let me know what your preference is....
