Although the amateur sports scene isn't back to normal in Manitoba, some more light was provided back on Friday when restrictions inside sporting facilities across the province were lessened.
No games will be played for the time being, but volleyball will resume in Dauphin very soon. The Parkland Volleyball Camp -- which was pushed back several months -- is officially a go beginning on Sunday, March 21 and it will be four weekends in total. It will feature girls from grade six to 10. Registered players are now being contacted by Ted Rea and if you are unable to take part, spots may open up.
Only 10 players are able to be on the court at this time per restrictions. When it comes to the Parkland Vipers, the only team planning a return is the 15U group as they have only 10 players, with all other age groups having more. The team will return to the court later this month.
"Volleyball Manitoba emphasized at a meeting the other day that they still don't want us holding tryouts," said Rea.
The last time any volleyball was played in the province was way back in November. And after about a five-month hiatus, Ted is thrilled that volleyball can return in the province, albeit at a reduced level.
"All the girls are chomping at the bit to get back on the court, there is a lot of excitement," ended Rea.
All players and coaches will be required to wear a mask at all times.
