This week we went to our District Tourney. Which was in Newhalen. Our team, which was Tyler, me, and Zach, took 6th place. There were about 11 schools and about 14 teams. Some schools had two teams. We won three games.
We also did a lot of other things besides volleyball. We had a service project that the Newhalen iLead students ran. A few of the south iLead students ran a teamwork building shop.
The service project was to write letters to people in the military or the hospital. I didn’t get to go since I was helping with the teamwork session. But Zach did say that there was a big stack of letters so I think it went well.
The teamwork building sessions were basically a bunch of mini icebreakers. The first activity we did was sticking a card on our foreheads and treating the person based on the value of the card. Then after about 15 minutes, we lined up based on the way we were treated. The next activity was to get into groups and pass a tennis ball around and introduce themselves. Then another tennis ball was added and they had to do it again, after they were done that time, a volleyball was added. The last activity was an obstacle course. The groups had a leader and everyone was blindfolded but their leader. They had to put their hands on each others shoulders and the leader had lead them through a obstacle course. I think everyone had a good time doing all of the activities.
We also had a serving and a bump contest. Pilot Point won the serving contest and got a trophy. Madison Manning and Rylee Manning won the bump contest.
We had an award ceremony after all of the games. The Levelock Vikings took first place. 8 people were picked for an all tourney team that would stay in Newhalen and play at regionals. I have heard that they have been practicing very hard! Good luck to the LPSD All Tourney Team!
I didn't take any pictures while I was there, I'm sorry :D
